Cambridge Community Television, Cambridge, Mass.

An innovative citizen journalism initiative empowers local residents to use technology to bring attention to issues in their community that they deem newsworthy. NeighborMedia’s nine citizen journalists, based in all of Cambridge’s zip codes, are using a unique combination of web and television media to promote community events, alert neighbors to proposed development, and explore difficult issues like violence and racism. NeighborMedia content is available for viewing on the web at www.ccvcambridge.org/neighbormedia and on CCTV’s community cable channels.
