Representing Broadcasters Across New York

The New York State Broadcasters Association represents the interests of over 300 television and radio stations in the New York State Assembly, the United States Congress, and various other legislative bodies.

Since 1955, NYSBA has fought many battles on behalf of broadcasters including opening New York’s courtrooms to broadcast television coverage, putting broadcasters on equal economic footing with newspapers, and defending the confidential sources of broadcast journalists.

In addition to its lobbying efforts, NYSBA offers a variety of services to help the broadcasters of the New York State better serve their communities. A weekly newsletter, NEWSTREAM, is produced by NYSBA leadership to keep member stations updated on the latest issues facing broadcasters.
