Headlines | Benton Foundation

This month’s Blog-of-the-month (BOTM) highlights the Benton Foundation‘s Communications-Related Headlines.

Their mission is to, “articulate a public interest vision for the digital age and to demonstrate the value of communications for solving social problems. Current priorities include: promoting a vision and policy alternatives for the digital age in which the benefit to the public is paramount; raising awareness among funders and nonprofits on their stake in critical policy issues; enabling communities and nonprofits to produce diverse and locally responsive media content.”

In addition to their blog, they have a library of important and interesting studies about the digital divide, e-government, broadband services, digital inclusion of low-income communities and more.

You can keep up to date by visiting the blog, subscribing to their daily e-mail or pasting their RSS feed into your favorite RSS reader.
