English, from Free Press:
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Last weekend, we converged in Madison almost 1700 strong for a historic
event that demonstrated the media reform movement's growth and passion.
Thank you for being part of it. It is vital that we keep up the momentum,
engage others and increase the dialogue amongst media activists.
Please visit our new online discussion forums at
http://www.mediareform.net/conf/forums.php to continue the conversations
from the conference. We encourage you to share information about upcoming
events, resources and opportunities for activism by posting to the
"Announcements" forum. [Forums will be open as of 5PM today, 11/14]
As many conference attendees requested, conference materials -- including
press coverage and multimedia files of select events -- are now available at
http://www.mediareform.net . Please stay tuned to the site for additional
material that will help facilitate media activism, including audio
recordings of most conference sessions, which will be available for download
within the next few weeks.
We have received much positive feedback about the event -- and also
constructive criticism. We are committed to learning from this experience.
If you haven't already submitted your conference evaluation form, please do
so by November 21, either by mailing it in to Free Press or by using our
online form at http://www.mediareform.net/conf/evaluation.php.
Again, thank you for bringing your energy and ideas to the National
Conference on Media Reform. We have made great strides but still have a long
way to go in stopping media consolidation, achieving broader media reform,
and winning justice. We look forward to working with you more on these
important issues.
Sincerely,
The Free Press Team
