In a release, the NAB writes, “As we celebrate more than a century of radio and television, we must continue to remind policymakers that local broadcasting is an ever-evolving medium with staying power. We are constantly innovating to deliver trusted information and entertainment to our audiences in convenient, modern and familiar ways.”
