Joanna sez,
Did you know the FCC is gearing up to relax restrictions on big media again, like in 2003?
They will be in Los Angeles at USC for a Town Hall Meeting on Aug 31st to talk about localism in media… ask us what we want, etc… They are required to do this and all comments will be a part of the public record.
Some orgs (like Media Alliance from Oakland) are getting together to promote attendance as well as to offer some prep workshops! The goal is to inform about what to expect at the Town Hall Meeting, what to think about when you prepare your "3 minutes", etc… These are this Thursday at the CWA local 9000, 5855 Venice Blvd at noon and again at 6pm.
(Thanks, Joanna!)
