  Scholarships Available for 2007 National Conference for Media Reform

Apply at http://www.freepress.net/conference/=scholarships07
Deadline: November 6, 2006

The third National Conference for Media Reform is set for Jan. 12 -
14, 2007 in Memphis, Tennessee. The event will be an exciting,
inspiring three-day gathering for people who are concerned about the
state of our media and committed to working for change. The
conference will convene more than 2,000 activists, educators, media
makers, journalists, policymakers and concerned citizens to discuss
how to create a better media system.

In order to maximize the range of voices represented at the
conference, Free Press is offering a limited number of travel
scholarships and registration fee waivers to offset attendance costs
for individuals who would otherwise be unable to attend.

Please go to http://www.freepress.net/conference/=Scholarships07 for
more information and to apply. The scholarship application deadline
is November 6, 2006. Those without Internet access may call
1-877-888-1533, ext 27 to make alternate arrangements to submit an
application off-line.

Free Press is committed to supporting increased participation by
people from constituencies traditionally under-represented in media
policy work, particularly people of color, youth and grassroots
organizers. We also seek broad geographic representation. We will
prioritize scholarship applications from individuals who contribute
to the diversity of conference participants.

The National Conference for Media Reform will present ideas and
strategies for winning the fight for better media and connect you
with thousands of media reformers from across the nation. Whether you
have been a media reform activist for years or are new to the
movement, all are welcome.

For more information on the conference program, speakers, and up-to-

We hope to see you in Memphis!
