Report on the Public Media Caucus

Convened on May 3, 2005 by the Center for Digital Democracy at the Ninth Street Independent Film Center in San Francisco coinciding with INPUT, the caucus was attended by over 70 individuals representing a broad cross-section of the field of independent media. The aim was to begin outlining what public media should be in the United States and how we, the independent media community, can help make it so.

This was the first of what is to be a series of meetings designed to engage the independent media community, media activists, public and private institutions, elected officials, and the public at-large in developing strategies and tactics to ensure a vibrant public media ecology. This document consolidates the information from the meeting and outlines specific action steps and recommendations for moving forward.
