You like news at your fingertips, so check out the new CEM site!

Marc Steiner, formerly of Baltimore's Public Radio Station, WYPR,  was abruptly removed from his seat behind the microphone in March by the station management.  Now you can get all the Marc Steiner you want, whenever you want, and join the community of listeners who share your views of the world, or, maybe NOT!

A sample from the website, its Mission Statement:

The Center for Emerging Media (CEM) was founded in 2000 as a 501(c)(3) private non-profit corporation by Marc Steiner, long-time community leader and talk show host on a local National Public Radio Station. The mission of CEM is to employ all forms of media – including radio, television and Internet – to produce groundbreaking new programs that address issues affecting our world. CEM is dedicated to introducing and giving airtime to voices that might otherwise go unheard.

CEM strives to introduce voices from all sides of key issues, with the conviction that providing a balanced forum not only expands public understanding but also deepens our democracy. CEM’s goal is to educate listeners regarding the complexity and depth of issues, and thus allow them to draw their own conclusions.

CEM is committed to giving airtime to voices that are not commonly heard on the radio. In addition to the usual scholars and intellectuals, listeners will hear individuals directly affected by the topics represented. From low wage workers to ex-convicts to Vietnam veterans, those who have not often been given a forum will be afforded that opportunity.

 

From the school of "when one door closes, another one opens....." we invite you to walk into the new Center for Emerging Media and visit with Marc, producers Jessica Phillips, and Justin Levy.  Stay and chat, or browse the galleries.  Just click, and enjoy....
