Why you should go to the Nat’l Conference on Media Reform in Memphis this January

Posted on December 15, 2006 by

The National Conference for Media Reform

There are lots of great reasons why you should plan on attending the National Conference on Media Reform from January 12-14, 2007. Here’s ten:

  1. It’s in Memphis. You know, Graceland, barbeque, home of the blues
  2. It only happens every two years
  3. Hang out with 3,000 media activists, bloggers, researchers, policy-makers, journalists and artists
  4. Come to the pre-conference on media policy research on Jan 11 that I am helping organize
  5. Awesome speakers, including Rev. Jesse Jackson, Amy Goodman (Democracy Now!), Jane Fonda, Phil Donahue, and Bill Moyers
  6. Panels and workshops on a rainbow of media policy related topics, i.e. : "From Computer Screens to the Streets: Activism in a wired world," "Payola: Radio, Records, and the FCC," and "Hip Hop Activism for Media Accountability."
  7. Celebrate Martin Luther King’s birthday (Jan 15) at the National Civil Rights Museum
  8. Discounted registration for bloggers
  9. Parties every night!
  10. You can’t attend in Second Life (doh!)
