New Doc Celebrates NYC's Weird and Wild Public Access TV Experiment

In the 1970s and '80s, NYC's gave independent creators a platform on broadcast television, in the form of Manhattan Cable TV, a network that aired un-censored programs without editorial discretion, including independent variety shows, LGBTQ+ culture shows, and even pornography. Director David Shadrack Smith talks about his new documentary, 'Public Access,' which explores this free speech experiment. There's a screening of the film this evening at the LES Film Festival.
