Talk Wireless
From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
Talk Wireless is a public-access wireless network within the Fleet, broadcasting a range of "current affairs" and other programs, one of which is the political show "The Colonial Gang."
A program on Talk Wireless broadcasts the fact that Gaius Baltar is to become the Quorum of Twelve representative for Caprica. Baltar himself takes a dim view to the medium, calling it an excuse for "low-brow rabble-rousing" (Colonial Day). Other large events broadcast throughout the Fleet include the presidential election and Baltar's trial.
The Fleet News Service likely uses Talk Wireless for its broadcasts.
Note
- The term is a parallel of talk radio.
