Mapping Public Media

What constitutes “public media” in a participatory, digital era?

This is the question we’ve set out answer with our Mapping Public Media project, an ongoing series of maps and visualizations designed to reveal the changing public media landscape.

The findings suggest both distinct characteristics shared by public media, and multiple arenas for future research.
