The Importance of Local Media Since the Telecommunications Act of 1996 the media industry has seen rapid consolidation of ownership into the hands of a few massive conglomerates. Newspaper, radio and television owners continually seek the further relaxing of regulations to expand their scope and influence. The barriers of entry into these traditional forms of media have made grassroots or contrary points of view difficult or impossible to express. Localism is drowned out. The best interests of communities are forsaken for shareholders and the bottom line. Simultaneously, advances in technology have created new forms of media that outpace the grip of media giants, lobbyists and the lawmakers that protect their interests. Internet radio is one of these mediums. A relatively low cost of entry and mature infrastructure allow individuals or groups to reach audiences across the street or across the globe. G-town Radio strives to level the playing field of media access by focusing on the neighborhood of Germantown, the surrounding communities and all of Philadelphia.
