edit Title

Alliance for Community Media

edit Description

Excerpted from the website:

Public, Educational and Governmental (PEG) access television channels on cable television systems serve a wide range of community groups including: the Lions, Kiwanis and Rotary Clubs, the League of Women Voters, NAACP, AARP, the Urban League, public schools, local Chambers of Commerce, religious institutions, colleges and universities, community theaters, labor unions, veterans groups, second language communities, the disabled, politicians, and political organizations. Additionally, PEG channels carry programming from NASA, the US Department of Education, the Organization of American States, Members of Congress, the National Guard, the US Army, the US Air Force, the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and various arts organizations such as Annenberg/CPB and Classic Arts Showcase.

PEG access centers exist because cable operators provide channel capacity, services, facilities and equipment as partial compensation to communities for their use of public rights-of-way (streets, highways, parks and other government owned property). This compensation provides access to media for the local population.
