8 JUNIO - Communitari@s 33

I took to the streets with El Churo to publicize the right of communities to have 33% of radio broadcasting. The state law states 33% for private broadcasting, 33% for public broadcasting, and 33% for community broadcasting. When interviewed, many people argued that communtiies should have 50% if not more!

Last week, I went to a meeting with a coalition of community, communication, and academic organizations who were trying to figure out what exactly is the difference between public vs. community. What are universities classified under? Public or community broadcasting? What about the church? What does the law exactly specify about these organizatoins? How do we increase frequencies in rural and underserved areas?
