radio literacy

Radio is a topic that has many more media literacy activists backing it, like the Prometheus Radio Project, a non-profit organization founded by a small group of radio activists in 1998.
"We believe that a free, diverse, and democratic media is critical to the political and cultural health of our nation, yet we see unprecedented levels of consolidation, homogenization, and restriction in the media landscape. We work toward a future characterized by easy access to media outlets and a broad, exciting selection of cultural and informative media resources."

"Andrea Quijada, Director of Educational Programs for NMMLP, joined 50 activists from across the country in Washington, DC February 25-26, 2008 to lobby for Low Power FM radio. The gathering was organized by Philadelphia-based Prometheus Radio Project to support the Low Power Community Radio Act of 2007. This piece of legislation would re-instill power to the FCC to provide licenses for LPFM radio stations in urban areas.
The FCC's power was blocked by an act of Congress in 2000, which requested that a study be done to ensure that LPFM radio stations did not cause interference with full power stations. The $2.2 million study was completed in 2003, revealing that no interference is caused by LPFM stations. Andrea, along with Colleen Gorman and Autumn Chacon from Quote-Unquote Channel 27 in Albuquerque, met with the offices of Congressman Tom Udall, Representative Heather Wilson, Senator Pete Domenici, and Senator Jeff Bingaman."
