Building a Community-Driven Media Organization

How can we place “community” in community driven media? It is more than the sum of radio, websites and blogs- it can be a “media-information community”. The Forward News network is an attempt to build a Wisconsin community commons and media center. Activists who have been instrumental in the building of FNN will discuss the launch of this new project.
