Dear Friends,If you're like us, you've probably realized that a healthier, more diverse, media landscape would lead to progress on the issues you care about. The consolidation of traditional media into a handful of corporations has left us with a fraction of the information we need to be informed citizens.
This is your chance to jump in and fill the void. The Internet is still a vast and wild place, one that is perfect for creating new media.
Learn how at this year's LA Media Reform Summit!
