Meghan O’Rourke

Meghan O'Rourke is Channel Director at Town Meeting TV in Burlington, Vermont, a community media organization dedicated to covering local government with the depth and consistency that commercial television rarely provides. Her work centers on helping residents follow the public decisions, meetings, and conversations that shape everyday civic life, in a state where town meeting government is foundational to how communities govern themselves.

Her service on the ACM Northeast Region board extends that local commitment to regional field leadership, connecting Vermont's community media practice to the peer network of practitioners across the Northeast.

Town Meeting TV's mission maps directly onto the original promise of government access television: that residents deserve to see their government in action, in full, without editorial filtering by outlets that may find local process too slow or too granular to cover.
