RED, formerly University Radio Essex, is one of the oldest student radio stations in the country if not the oldest (the subject of inter-uni debate) gracing the airwaves for some 30 years! For those in range it broadcasts on 1404 and 999 AM 24 hours a day (during term time), and online too - reinforcing their status as innovators, looks like internet killed the video show.
UTV is the university's very own TV station. Set up in 2004, it gives students the chance to gain experience as budding presenters, producers or techies. You'll be trained by the University's multimedia centre. Last year, programmes included everything from live election broadcasts to cookery shows.

Although we haven't managed to work out why its called the Rabbit, this is the students' fortnightly magazine, containing sports, music reviews, features and news - which is rather university orientated. Rather than being insular, it is probably a rarity amongst the student press that the SU publications are actually prepared to report what goes on on campus instead of turning a blind eye to the success and misdemeanours of their respective student populations.
