Redefining Media, Empowering Citizens.
About Citizens.am
Where Progressive Voices Resonate
Citizens.am is an ultra-progressive news and talk radio station dedicated to challenging the manufactured narratives of mainstream media. Born from a commitment to fairness, diversity, and truth, we exist to dismantle the manufactured narratives dominating today’s media landscape. Citizens.am is not just a radio station; it’s a movement for intellectual discourse, societal progress, and a truly informed democracy.
If you are tired of manufactured talking points and narratives, and yearn for genuine, impactful conversations, you’ve found your sanctuary. We are not just a radio station. We are a movement. A revolution. And with every broadcast, we strive to change the narrative, one voice at a time.
Why We Exist
The mainstream media is largely controlled by a handful of powerful corporations that prioritize profits over people, promoting narratives that sustain existing power structures. This monopoly on information stifles diversity of thought and limits public understanding. We stand as a counterforce to this media homogenization, inspired by Noam Chomsky’s concept of “manufacturing consent.” Citizens.am recognizes how the framing of issues, topic selection, and omission of dissenting views subtly align public perception with elite interests.
Our Mission
At Citizens.am, we aim to break through the corporate-driven, neoliberal biases that characterize much of the mainstream media. We amplify independent journalism and progressive voices, providing a platform for underrepresented perspectives and narratives often ignored by the dominant media. Our goal is to empower our audience with factual reporting, critical analysis, and inclusive storytelling.
Our Vision
We envision a world where media reflects the complexity and diversity of human experience. By amplifying the voices of communities of color, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other marginalized groups, we strive to foster an inclusive and equitable public conversation. Through thoughtful dialogue and progressive commentary, we challenge conservative and neoliberal narratives, providing a much-needed balance to the political discourse.
