ACTIVITIES
Hello!
My name is Alexandra Hubbard and I am resurrecting a pre-9/11
attempt to develop a local Citizen's for Independent Public
Broadcasting contact list.
At
the national level, CIPB has developed a detailed proposal
for a Public broadcasting Trust (PBT) that is independently
funded, publicly accountable and true to the service's founding
mission. At the community level, CIPB builds chapters, and
is working with national partner organizations to democratize
community public broadcasting service. Toward these goals
CIPB offers a training manual, video and a national clearinghouse
for organizing.
Unfortunately
I let 9-11 and other endeavors interfere with following through
on a local push to start an area group for this effort, thus
freeing all public broadcasting from the dependence and influence
of major corporations. Well, now it seems that pressure is
building and broadcast frequencies may actually be taxed,
but not necessarily in favor of public broadcasting. Dr. Jerry
Starr needs us now more than ever. Please check out www.cipbonline.org.
If you are interested in this effort perhaps we can help each
other do what we can to further the influence of this organization.
Sincerely,
Alex
