Morgan Murphy Media
"There are a myriad of things that make our business great and that have allowed me to do good things for the communities I've served. In return, this industry has been very good to me and at its foundation (are the committed broadcasters who ensure a competitive, robust future for all of us.) broadcasters are committed to ensuring a robust future for everyone. How can you find a better business than that!?"
Co-Chair
Ben Downs
Vice President and General Manager
Bryan Broadcasting Corporation
"I've had the opportunity to work in broadcasting for a long time so I know how much local Radio and TV mean to their communities. Information, fundraising, emergency information, and a friendly voice are what we know broadcasters do. But not everyone in Washington understands we do this and we do it over the air for free. It can be hard work telling our story, but if we can prevent policies and regulations that limit our ability to serve our communities, it's worth the fight."
