Media

Newspapers

Cambridge is served by several weekly newspapers. The most prominent is the Cambridge Chronicle, which is also the oldest surviving weekly paper in the United States.

Radio

Cambridge is home to the following commercially licensed and student-run radio stations:

Callsign Frequency City/town Licensee Format WHRB 95.3 FM Cambridge (Harvard) Harvard Radio Broadcasting Co., Inc. Musical variety WJIB 740 AM Cambridge Bob Bittner Broadcasting Adult Standards/Pop WMBR 88.1 FM Cambridge (MIT) Technology Broadcasting Corporation College radio Television

Cambridge Community Television (CCTV) has served the Cambridge community since its inception in 1988. CCTV operates Cambridge's public access television facility and programs three television channels, 8, 9, and 96 on the Cambridge cable system (Comcast). The city has invited tenders from other cable providers; however, presently Comcast remains the only fixed television public utility for Cambridge. Services from American satellite TV providers, however, are available.

Social media

As of 2011, a growing number of social media efforts provide means for participatory engagement with the locality of Cambridge, such as Localocracy and Foursquare.
