Research
Media Content, Policy, Infrastructure
Grantmakers in Film + Electronic Media asked Intelligent Television to complete a survey and analysis of funders and nonprofit organizations to determine the amounts and kinds of philanthropic resources being devoted to media content, policy, and infrastructure in the United States. The project interviewed a broad range of grantmakers in media, distilled extensive survey results, and in 2010 issued a detailed report for publication available at: http://www.gfem.org/node/873.
