FCC Attacks SFLR 93.7FM! Call Your Supervisor!

CALL YOUR SUPERVISORS! COME TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING TUESDAY @ 2PM AND THEN THE STEPS OF CITY HALL (Polk St. Side)TO PRESSURE THE SUPES TO SUPPORT SAN FRANCISCO LIBERATION RADIO 93.7FM!
Come to the Board of Supervisors meeting to demand the Supes to make a formal statement in support of freedom in media in general and SFLR 93.7FM in particular! Make a statement in the public comment period or just hold up a sign.

San Francisco Liberation Radio 93.7 FM has been broadcasting for ten
years now. Basing our authority to broadcast on the right to freely
speak and the rights of individuals to have access to a free and
diverse media, we have defied the FCC and brought the people of San
Francisco a resource that is truly available to those who wish to use
it. The station moved across town one year ago last May Day and
since then we have received no word from the FCC, until now.

Last Wednesday at about 5pm federal agents came and delivered a
"notice of illegal broadcasting". They were denied entry
although they threatened up to a $17,000 fine and time in jail. We
have ten days to show them either a permit or "authority"
to broadcast. We have been trying to get the San Francisco Board of
Supervisors to pass a resolution in support of SFLR and Bay View
Hunter's Point Radio 103.3, but have made limited headway. We hope
that this latest visit will be the impetus needed for them to pass a
resolution in support of freedom in media.

Especially now, with the new (de)regulations having just been passed
in the Federal Communications Commission and the media becoming more
and more homogenous, we need to show the FCC that this is an issue
worth fighting for. A free and diverse media is not a thing of
theoretical importance; it is an absolute necessity for a healthy
democracy! Call your Supervisor! Tell them that this is an issue
you care about and they should support a resolution backing San
Francisco Liberation Radio 93.7FM and Bay View Hunter's Point Radio
103.3FM against an overbearing FCC with only the health and wealth of
Corporate Media at heart!
