Fifteen Years of Consumer Broadband Labels
Subscribe today and receive your first digest in the morning.
In 2026, we will celebrate our 45th anniversary and the 30th anniversary of Headlines!
For almost thirty years, we’ve provided the only free, reliable, and non-partisan daily digest that curates and distributes news about universal broadband, while connecting communications, democracy, and public interest issues. While newsletters are having a moment, we had to take ours to celebrate this milestone and our almost 8,000 issues!
"Among the many things I am grateful for Benton's Headlines newsletter is the timing and the accessibility. When my son goes upstairs to finish getting dressed, I have a glorious 10-12 minutes to read the newsletter which gives me just enough time to skim headlines and absorb 1-2 articles of interest or relevance. It has become so commonplace in our mornings that my 11-year-old daughter calls it the “Benton 10” as I often share an insight or two on our walk to school."—Andrew Butcher, President, Maine Connectivity Authority
Tom Wheeler, former Chairman, Federal Communications Commission: "I LOVE your Daily Digest! Rely on it to keep informed."
Leon Wilson, Chief of Digital Innovation and Chief Information Officer, Cleveland Foundation: "Your daily digests are beneficial, in-depth and informative. The content and breadth that you all share and cover on a daily basis is short of remarkable. I am always walking away more informed and find myself saving/retaining darn near every single daily digest into a special inbox folder."
To help keep Headlines free, please consider a gift to the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society
