How is the idea of defining media even feasible? Apparently, Lake Oswego city councilors thought it to be a simple task until a swarm of media organizations, media law experts and independent bloggers spoke out against the definition.
What defined true media, according to Lake Oswego's tentative policy, was that the organization had to be institutionalized, well-established and had to produce at least 25 percent news content, according to the article that was published in 2008 on Oregon Live's website.
"The government shouldn't control the media. What it gives, it can take away."
- President of Open Oregon, Judson Randall
