Hello all. Normally I wouldn't think of sending press-releasish stuff to
the list, but in this case...
  

1. This could be an interesting panel for WTO-thinking folk, particularly
those who were reporting to the list as events unfolded;
2. These souls could definitely use a dose of the hacktivist perspective on
their coverage (and yes, the Weekly folk do listen -- don't know the KPLU
guy);
3. It's free;
4. There will be refreshments <g>.
  

So here's the deal. Hope to see lots of very vocal listfolk there...
 

Liking the thought of a roomful of hacktivists clarifying things for the
media --
Angela G.
(yeah, with the Weekly, but in the audience for this one).
  

>>
Seattle Weekly and KPLU Radio are sponsoring a panel discussion of the
media's coverage of the WTO, titled "WTO & the Media: Did We Get the Story
Right?"  on Wednesday, December 15, from 7 - 8:30 pm, at the Seneca Room in
Town Hall, 1119 8th Avenue.  Panelists include Knute Berger, Editor of
Seattle Weekly; Geov Parrish, Political Writer for Seattle Weekly; Steve
Krueger, KPLU Business and Labor Writer; and others to be announced.
Questions from the audience will be welcomed. This event is FREE and open
