Local media can fulfill a significant institutional role in advancing the concept of good urban governance. Focusing on this matter is likely to result in an enhanced effectiveness of this social intermediary institution. This paper, based on the assumption mentioned above, explores the existing theoretical literature related to the concepts of governance and good governance in conjunction with other concepts such as local media, structural functionalism, and media social responsibility. It critically assesses the concept of good governance, which represents a novel approach to public administration, within the urban context, with local media as its focal point. Subsequently, utilizing data derived from comprehensive theoretical studies, explorations, deep interviews, and content analysis methodologies, this paper addresses the pertinent questions and objectives through MAXQDA software. As a result, this research identifies three comprehensive dimensions of the role of local media in advancing good urban governance in Iran (responsiveness to officials, city oversight, and public participation in governance), and offers corresponding strategies and recommendations. The findings of this research emphasize the independent and influential role of media in governance. While formal media outlets in Iran face limitations in serving as a public tool due to existing structures, their capacity to hold officials accountable remains substantial.
Moreover, empowering citizens through media, especially non-formal media, is achievable within the broader governance framework. Ultimately, the enduring and supervisory role of the media in monitoring the environment and exercising societal oversight is particularly concerning urban issues. This focus is more readily accessible and fundamental for local media.
