"LPFM: The People's Choice" to air on the Hallmark Channel on Sunday, January 8th at 7 am EST and 7 am PST.
There's a new sound on the air and it's emanating from a source deep in the hearts and minds of Americans across the country. "LPFM: The People's Choice" chronicles the extraordinary story of a low power, low cost radio service that withstood the rigors of Capitol Hill and special interest attacks. Today, LPFM is sending out a loud and clear signal -- Freedom of Speech has a new ally, and it's LPFM. "LPFM: The People's Choice" is more than a documentary- it is a rallying cry to build community around locally owned media. The film chronicles how low power FM radio is bringing diverse people closer together and giving new life to disadvantaged communities, new strength to neighborhoods and new voices in the marketplace of ideas. This program is not a debate about the merits of LPFM vs. the radio industry. Rather, it is meant to educate the audience about the possibilities for finding a new voice with LPFM. The film was produced by the Office of Commmunication of the United Church of Christ. For more information, please visit www.ucc.org/ocinc, or call 202-263-2576.
