Sue Wilson tells important stories which move politicians to act. The Emmy winning director of the media reform documentary "Broadcast Blues" and editor of SueWilsonReports.com, Sue recently founded the Media Action Center. Wilson was 1987's California State University Long Beach "Outstanding Graduate" in Radio/TV/Film. In the early '90's, she won Emmys for specials she produced for Jim Lampley, Bree Walker, Sylvia Lopez and others at KCBS-TV in Los Angeles, and then turned the spotlight on wasteful government spending for Sacramento Fox TV station KTXL, where her Emmy winning stories changed national, state, and local spending policies. In 1998 , Wilson broke national TV news of pharmaceuticals appearing in drinking water, which forced the US EPA to begin testing. Her AP, RTNDA, and PRNDI award winning radio show "Healing Healthcare" at Sacramento NPR station KXJZ in the early 2000's helped put more nurses on the job in California. "Broadcast Blues" shows how poor U.S. media policy is destroying discourse in this country. It reminds us that We the People own the public airwaves, and we can and must Take the Media Back! See her website to obtain DVDs and for updated information on our broken system of broadcasting. And join the actions at MediaActionCenter.net to hold broadcasters - and the Federal Communications Commission - accountable to the public interest!
