| For ‘We
the People’ to govern ourselves, a truly democratically
free and openly diverse broadcast system is imperative.
Democracy, we believe, is stretched to the breaking point
when a few for-profit corporations control the vital flow
of mass communications on our nation.
The Democratic Media Legal Project team is already developing
the ground breaking framework for a constitutional challenge
to the present broadcasting structure.
We will ask the courts to order the restoration of the
publicly-owned airwaves to meaningful public control as
appropriate for a democratic nation.
Our mission: To bring about, by means of the legal
process, the governance of the publicly owned airwaves
in accordance with democratic ideals and the United States
Constitution.
The Democratic Media Legal Project will be a valuable
organizing vehicle in building the popular political movement
necessary to create a diverse and democratic communication
system.
