Seattle has been at the forefront of new media developments since the 1999 protests from the World Trade Organization meeting in Seattle spur the formation of an Independent Media Center of the city, covering and disseminating online news to audiences around the world. Microsoft's location outside of Seattle near Redmond, and the growth of interactive media companies has made Seattle stand out in new digital media.

Television
Seattle's television market is the 13th largest in the United States; including the cities near Tacoma, Bellevue, Everett, and Bellingham; and additional audiences from British Columbia, Canada (Vancouver and surrounding areas on broadcast and cable).
Seattle is served by many television stations. The main network affiliates are KOMO 4 (ABC), KING 5 (NBC), KIRO 7 (CBS), KCTS 9 (PBS) and KCPQ 13 (Fox), which is also seen in Canada via cable and digital satellite providers. Also broadcast in English is KSTW 11 (The CW), KONG 6/16Independent station run by/with KING TV, KTBW 20 (TBN), KZJO 22 (MyNetworkTV), KBTC 28 (PBS), KVOS 12, KWPX-TV 33 (ION). Most can be seen in Canada via digital or satellite cable. There are also two Spanish-language stations: KUNS 51 (Univision) and KFFV 45 (Azteca America).
Seattle commercial TV stations differentiate themselves from each other in different ways. KING-TV, owned by Gannett Company, has been nominated for 56 Regional Emmy Awards. This station allows viewers to submit their own photos and video content through their website and also highlights the work of average citizens in the broadcast community in repeating features, "Host Team." The parent company of KOMO, Fisher Communications (which sold its media property to Sinclair Broadcast Group in 2013), launched a network of hyperlocal websites in 2009, which includes blogs on issues related to community service, family-appealing news, news crime, and news about events occurring around the neighborhood. Finally, KIRO, owned by Cox Enterprises, retained three journalists in Washington, DC, a bureau to cover news of interest to viewers in Washington State.
Seattle also has three public television stations. Seattle channels, state-run city access television (GATV), broadcast public affairs, community service, and art programs. The station is funded in part by the cost of cable television franchises and partly with a $ 5 million grant from Comcast, which will be paid for 10 years to support the art program. After first focusing on citizenship programming, the Seattle Canal has been known for its art programming. As TV station broadcasting priorities have begun to emphasize art programs, the program has shifted most government-oriented programs to stream live on the Internet, best accessed by viewers with high-speed Internet access. KCTS-TV is a Seattle PBS member station and operates three feeds: main, high-definition, and common interest stations; KCTS 9 PBS Kids (digital sub-channel 9.2), featuring children's programs; and KCTS 9 Create (digital subchannel 9.3), featuring DIY, cooking, arts and crafts, and travel programs. In 2009, KCTS aired 160 episodes in a routine series on local public affairs, personal finance, economic issues, and business dealings. While KCTS is a popular source for viewing nationally produced PBS shows, KCTS has less programming on local public affairs than the other two public TV stations in the region. The third public station, SCAN, is Seattle's public access cable television network. A 501 (c) 3 non-profit, it provides equipment, production facilities, and media instruction for Seattle residents and other King County communities. Despite limited funding, SCAN often airs publicly-produced public-affairs programs each week rather than a mix of all city broadcast networks.
The cable networks based in the area include Root Sports Northwest, Northwest Cable News, ResearchChannel, and UWTV. Seattle cable viewers also receive CBUT-DT 2 (CBC) from Vancouver, British Columbia, which is often done on cable channels 99.

Radio
Seattle has the thirteen largest radio market in the United States, although this ranking does not take into account Canadian audiences. The radio market runs in Puget Sound and Western Washington. The Seattle PI published an article in February 2010 about the commencement of the radio industry in Seattle.
AM station
FM station
The coverage of news and public affairs on the Seattle dial radio is inconsistent. KIRO (97.3 FM), which has an editorial room of 30 people, aired 34 hours of news programs per week, focusing primarily on local reporting; calculate segments of news analysis and related programming, this reaches 91 hours per week. KOMO-AM (97.7 FM) airs news and comments 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Kris Bennett Broadcasting, the three stations serving the black community, broadcasts 5 hours of local radio talks every week.
Many Seattle radio stations are also available via Internet radio, with KEXP being the first radio station to offer real-time playlists, broadcasting uncompressed CD-quality music over the internet 24 hours a day, and offering its podcasts internet archives. Hollow Earth Radio is also online-only and emphasizes local artists outside the mainstream music stream.
Internet
Seattle's first significant deprivation to Internet media came with Indymedia, a cooperative started in 1999 that has spread to many cities around the world. In the decade since the founding of Indymedia, all the mainstream media channels of the city have built or added to their online presence, and many blogs have sprung up to complement traditional media. The city became the first hit when Seattle Post-Intelligencer became the first online newspaper in the country, and like SeattlePI.com, the outlet has experimented with its growth by adding reader blogs and focusing on the environment. blog. P-I first started experimenting with community-driven community engagement with the "Big Blog", a local news blog whose founder reporter used to hold regular public meetings with Seattle residents, a practice that is now embraced by other local bloggers, as well.
Throughout the Seattle area, 43% of adults read online news regularly and 21% read or contribute to blogs. In addition to blogs, other online media outlets that offer wider coverage include Crosscut, started by Seattle Weekly founder David Brewster, Publicola.net, Investigate West & amp; Seattle Post Globe. Sea Beez, a content-sharing online portal for media outlets, is in the process of launching a local news site.
In addition, Seattle offers several locally focused online publications. SportsPressNW, founded by sports columnist Art Thiel and Steve Rudman, focuses on sports. GeekWire, founded in 2011 by former P-I reporters John Cook and Todd Bishop, focuses on technology and startup industries. Do206 focuses on a list of art-and-entertainment events, news and information founded by Adam Zacks, founder of Sasquatch! Music Festival, and Scott Porad, a local technology executive.
Seattle is served by a number of online media outlets: the Seattle City Information Technology Department identifies 260 Seattle-area-focused websites and local communities, including news outlets and connected non-traditional information. Much of this online activity is driven by the city's rich hyperlocal news, which has experienced exponential growth in the last decade. It has been led in the area by sites like westseattleblog.com and myballard.com, but also old media companies like KOMO. There are a couple of articles here and here that include an ad scene for hyperlocals in January 2010.
Seattle online hyperlocal media varies greatly in terms of traffic, scope, and web resources. Some sites are run by journalists who are first trained in traditional media, such as Next Door Media, a network of 10 environmental blogs that capture a combined 1 million page views per month. By comparison, SeattleTimes.com and SeattlePI.com averaged 45 million and 40 million monthly page views, respectively. jCapitol Hill Seattle, another popular hyperlocal blog, displays 200,000 monthly page views, and West Seattle Blog, 900,000. Despite various audiences, content analysis by the New America Foundation finds that online media fill the void in news coverage left by traditional media. The study sees Capitol Hill Seattle West Seattle Blog, My Ballard, Wallyhood, SeattlePI.com and SeattleTimes.com, and found that the first four sources (all hyperlocal blogs) devote a greater percentage of their news coverage to a specific issue for the Seattle environment. SeattleTimes.com and SeattlePI.com, on the other hand, include more metro, national, and international news. The blogs devote a greater percentage of their coverage to the combined subjects of politics, health, education, employment, social services, and art and entertainment.
The broad background of Seattle on the Internet is the city's history of developing alternative media, ranging from small pressures to low-power FM radio broadcasts. Independent KRAB-FM radio, volunteer-ran, high-powered stations operating at 107.7 MHz on regular broadcast bands, affect the generation of listeners during the 1960s and 1970s. Then, before Internet radio became practical, a number of very low power microradio FM stations were broadcast on some FM frequencies not allocated to high power stations. Currently, FCC considerations and decisions about Internet radio are followed not only by Internet entrepreneurs, but also by the people of Seattle who produce and listen to local radio and by those who produce and read local print publications.

Many films have been created or filmed in the Seattle area (though many are actually filmed in Vancouver), including:

Analysis
Friedland (2014) and others praised Seattle as a model for the nation and perhaps the world in a powerful "civil communications ecology" that seeks to provide high-speed Internet access and computer and media training to all, including those with low incomes, who allegedly contribute to a higher level of democratic participation than elsewhere. Friedland identifies three main features of this:
In this system, news travels up and down with news writing and research divided between levels openly and consciously. This system has been created from a combination of high-tech base from the metro area with higher education and higher than average but with simple grants (usually several thousand dollars) for government-funded projects, J-Lab and John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
