I am in Minneapolis for the National Conference on Media Reform. If you are here, please come say hi! I am here with my organization the Center for Media Justice and will be repping at the MAGnet table tomorrow from 5:30-7. I am also live-blogging most of the conference and will be filling you in with happening and rants of the media justice movement and where disenfranchised communities fit into this debate and why media has to be on the agenda of every campaign for social justice.  Media reform and media policy is not just for DC wonks, but something all of us have a stake in. So please check back over the next few days. The program agenda looks awesome. You can also follow me on twitter if you do that sort of thing.
