Re: Racism and the Media Community Discussion a Success

Thanks to AARM for putting on this important event. Another interesting aspect of this forum was to see who all the players are. Who the alternatve media are, and having faces put on the corporate media management. The ethnic and cultural divide between the two was striking. Not to sound too personal, but can't resist noting that the station manager of 13WHAM, the station that puts terrible racists on its radio, looked like a white-supremacist near-skinhead.

With all the editorial meetings with the community we've heard about in the past few years, I have to say that this forum was the first time I felt the corporate media was made answer, and held accountable for, their sloppy journalism and inertia. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU AARM for making this possible. I never thought I'd see it.

Please keep us all informed about your next steps.
