Today in Boston the 2 day long National Conference for Media Reform 2011began. According to it's website, the conference is designed for "activists, media makers, educators, journalists, artists and policymakers in sessions about journalism and public media; technology and innovation; policy and politics; arts and culture; social justice and movement building; plus how-to workshops and hands-on trainings." There are over 300 presenters including professors, lawyers, journalists and others.
Couldn't make it? Neither could I, fortunately the website has streaming videos of the events in progress.

Sounds like a blast.
ReplyDeleteAs far as their ad goes though, I think it really takes away from the event by people needing to remember to look NCMR up online to find the place it's actually held, since I'm assuming the entire city of Boston isn't reserved for the conference.
I'd say good, but ugly.
