Sovereign City is currently focused on developing high-quality music and talk radio formats for distribution to HD and main radio frequencies, with its first product—a new hybrid adult contemporary (AC) format—due in April 2008. “Joe Giganti has a rare combination of knowledge, drive and zeal for using the media to meaningfully reach the hearts and minds of all people.

Prior to founding Veritas, Giganti worked extensively in many facets of the television and radio industry including as on-air talent, executive producer and in production. “I am humbled by Mark’s confidence in my ability and I am very thankful for this opportunity,” said Giganti. “Mark’s vision and resolve are an inspiration to all at Sovereign City and I look forward to aggressively leading the charge to bring that vision to fruition in the coming months.” Sovereign City Communications is a broadcast and multi-media content provider that utilizes the latest technology and highest-quality media products to enrich society.
