Community media stations across Massachusetts are facing a growing challenge as more viewers move away from traditional cable and toward streaming services.

A recent report from Boston 25 News highlights how cord-cutting has reduced funding for local access television stations, including the community media centers that provide coverage of local government meetings, high school sports, community events, and public affairs programming.

Mass Access, the statewide organization representing community media centers, is supporting legislation that would modernize the funding model by requiring major streaming providers to contribute to local media in the same way cable companies have for decades.

At WCA-TV, we see firsthand the value that community media brings to Watertown — providing residents with access to local news, government transparency, educational programming, and opportunities to create and share their own content.

Watch the full report from Boston 25 News to learn more about the challenges facing community media and the efforts underway to preserve this important public resource.

Cutting the cord and streaming has turned the media world upside down. Feeling the impact are community access channels across Massachusetts.
