Nat'l Conference for Media Reform: Last chance for early discount

by FreePress
Your presence couldn't be more crucial. Over the next couple of years, policymakers will make decisions that will determine the future of our media. Industry lobbyists are dedicating millions of dollars to lobby, litigate and lie their way toward rules that will bring Big Media more power and profits. We need your help to educate and mobilize millions of citizens to take on powerful corporations and defend the public interest.

Join us in St. Louis on May 13-15 to gather momentum for this fight.
