New Deal Nets Philly Public Access TV - Finally

A nearly 25-year campaign came to an end today with Mayor Street's announcement this afternoon that public access TV is coming to Philadelphia.
By early next year, area Comcast viewers will be able to watch community-produced programming with channels for youth, interfaith matters, public forums and arts and culture.
"Public access in this city took too long to come, but it's here," Street said during a press conference about a recent agreement reached. To become final and formalized, City Council must approve two ordinances when it returns Thursday from its summer break.
