<P>Amy, </P>
<P>In just six weeks, 2,500 people will gather in Boston to discuss how we
can fix our busted media system.</P>

<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: left">NCMR 2011 — April 8-10 — is the
biggest event in the country that tackles what is arguably the biggest
issue in the country: the state of our media.</P>
<P>Book your ticket to Boston. Then start planning your own journey
through our three-day event...</P>
<P>...Will you wait in a (very long) line to meet <STRONG>Susan
Crawford</STRONG> after she delivers a stirring speech about Comcast and
the coming cable monopoly?</P>
<P>...Will you chase down <STRONG>Ben Huh</STRONG> — founder of the
Cheezburger Network — to ask him how you can revolutionize the Internet
with your new idea? (Or maybe just to see if you can haz
cheeseburger?)</P>
<P>...Will <STRONG>Sarah Jones</STRONG> make you laugh or cry as she
describes what it's like to sue the FCC (and win)? </P>
<P>...Will you ask Nobel Prize-winner <STRONG>Joseph Stiglitz</STRONG>
about the connection between our media system and the global economy?</P>
<P>...Will you listen as NPR social media strategist <STRONG>Andy
Carvin</STRONG> describes how he curated thousands of tweets coming out of
Egypt and Libya?</P>
<P>Or maybe you’ll want to ask<EM> Democracy Now!</EM> host <STRONG>Amy
Goodman</STRONG> how a robust public media system can sustain our
democracy.</P>
<P>Then you can chat with <STRONG>Malkia Cyril</STRONG> from the Center
for Media Justice about what you can do to help build the movement for
media justice.</P>
<P>But most importantly, you’ll meet <EM>each other</EM> and
create plans together to change the media in your communities.</P>
<P>Take a look at our <A
href="http://act2.freepress.net/go/2485?akid=2332.9548955.3TrFut&t=7">list
of presenters</A>: These are the doers, the movers, the shakers, the
speakers and the media-makers who are building a more democratic, diverse,
open and accountable media system.</P>
<P>Come to NCMR 2011 and be one of them. <A
