What is "guerrilla television"

n. A form of television proposed by former Time-Life correspondent Michael Shamberg to describe how the counter-culture movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s should use communication technology to get its message to the public, because despite its strategies and tactics similar to warfare, guerrilla television is non-violent.

Guerrilla television is a term coined in 1971 by Michael Shamberg, one of the founders of the Raindance Foundation; the Raindance Foundation has been one of the counter-culture video collectives that in the 1960s and 1970s extended the role of the underground press to new communication technologies.
