More blogs covering the NCMR
In addition to the blogs listed on the right-hand column that are covering the NCMR, there are several others, in which conference attendees write about their experiences here.
- Changing Words has reports up about Day One and Day Two of the conference.
He wrote about Day Two, "The areas of interest here are across the board. Cable access, low-power FM radio stations, peer-to-peer file sharing, media ownership, FCC regulations, newspaper ownership and on and on."
Note to Changing Words: The first conference was in Madison, Wisconsin, November 2003.
- The Democracy Cell Project blog reported from the conference, reporting on presentations by Naomi Klein, Bob McChesney, Amy Goodman, and other conference happenings.
The writer concluded, "The one message I take away from today's sessions is that there is so much more happening in the world -- and specifically Iraq -- that we're not being told. This is nothing new to many people here at the DCP, but it was amazing and enlightening to hear in a public venue from notable people/jounalists/reporters who have been there and have seen what's happening, only to return to the US and find out how they're being silenced by corporate media."
- Jim Gilliam co-producer of Outfoxed, wrote about "filming the News Hounds for a follow-up to the Outfoxed behind the scenes."
- Majority Report at Air America briefly mentioned the McChesney and Nichols presentations.
