On the air, on the screen and in print......

We have a rich array of  radio, television and newspapers in Bridgwater and West Somerset. TWO regional daily papers circulate in the area. And TWO regional ITV companies beam in their signals. There are also very good weekly newspapers, a large commercial radio presence including two community stations and a county wide BBC local radio station (which, unfortunately, is broadcast on an obscure wavelength and thus has a miniscule audience).

For a taste of the issues that get people worked up, take a look at the local papers. They also give you an idea of the state of the economy (property prices and the like).
