Media Reform and Social Change
Speakers:
Date: Saturday, June 7th
Time: 8:30am to 10:00am
Room: Auditorium 2
Track: Media Reform Activism and Movement Building
Session Type: panel
Communication and access to technology are central to the success of all social change efforts. Media have the power to spark social change movements or to marginalize them. In this conversation, accomplished leaders in movements for human rights and social justice issues share their experiences and discuss why they prioritize media reform in their work. What impact do media policies have on social change movements? What kind of infrastructure, ownership and access to media are necessary for communities to win their quest for justice?

I think you folks are trying to treat the symptoms of this 'problem', rather than the cause. Why do people gravitate towards a Rush Limbaugh, especially in the southern states?

I would guess that if you reversed the trend depicted in the graph (especially in the south) that you would begin to see fewer people paying attention to the radical right.
If you would be so kind,
If you would be so kind, inform Mr. Lloyd to back off the first amendment talk, it is too obvious Mr. Lloyd you are is a socialist Marxist. I would go off on a rant, but, I have a backbone. If you are so in love with Chavez, just leave. Mr. Lloyd, I will purchase a ticket for you, send me some Chavez Lloyd hug shots. Thanks!
