Two different ways of democratizing the media have been suggested in recent years. The first is the reform of the existing media. Several proposals have been in made in regards to this notion of media reformation. These include imposing limits on ownership, amending the Competition Act (taking into consideration diversity in the expression of news and information) and legislating a code of ethics for media organizations, just to name a few.
The second suggestion is the to democratize the media through the establishment of alternative media outlets, which seek to serve particular community and social interests. Some examples of this sort of media are Co-op Radio in Vancouver or various independent media centres all over the World Wide Web.
