📺 WSTO TV: 57 Years of Community Media

Since 1968, WSTO TV has been serving Stoughton as one of the nation’s oldest continuously running community television stations.

What started as a simple idea — giving residents access to the airwaves — has grown into a full-fledged operation broadcasting city meetings, community events, school performances, and more.

Over the years, hundreds of volunteers, students, and staff have passed through our studio, each helping shape WSTO’s legacy as a trusted local voice.

Today, as technology evolves, we’re proud to keep that mission alive: local stories, by local people, for local viewers.

Thank you, Stoughton, for 50+ years of tuning in, supporting, and believing in community television. 💛
