FreedomJournal.Tv Partners with FreePress to Preserve Net Neutrality
Free Press launched Astroturf: Exposing the Fake Grassroots -- an interactive online tool that reveals the money behind front groups like Americans for Prosperity, the Heartland Institute
and Dick Armey’s FreedomWorks:
Check out 'Astroturf: Exposing the Fake Grassroots'
Mighty phone and cable companies have controlled Internet
policy in Washington for years. They set up astroturf groups and launch deceptive "consumer" Web sites to fool politicians
and the media into thinking that everyday people support their harmful policy positions.
It's time to set the record straight.
Free Press has pulled together the SavetheInternet.com Coalition, which now represents more than 800 groups, from the Christian
Coalition to MoveOn.org and the SEIU to the American Library Association. More than 1.5 million activists -- from all walks
of life and across the political spectrum -- have signed our petition in support of Net Neutrality.
Help us pull back the curtain on astroturf and tell people
the truth about Net Neutrality.
Expose the Shills and Front Groups
We need everyone -- including the media and members of
Congress -- to learn about these phony front groups. You can forward the widget to your friends, and we've made it easy to
post it on your own Web site or blog.
Thanks for your help!

Public Programming Eliminated
In Akron and Surrounding Communities
As a result of SB 117, Ohio's
video franchising agreement, Time Warner cable is no longer required to provide PEG programming once the local franchise agreements
expire. Time Warner stopped accepting all programming from the public in Akron, Canton, Youngstown and surrounding
communities. PEG programming will continue in Wadsworth, Macedonia, Hudson and other communities that control their
own PEG channels.
The City of Akron plans to replace
Public programming with a text video slide show with city information. Residents of Akron are
to contact their city council
representatives and inform them of the importance of public programming.
The Federal Government says "PEG
programming is essential to our communities as an outlet for free speech, local information and opinions and emergency communications."
Congressional hearings were held 9/17/08 to "help policymakers gain knowledge of what is necessary to protect this important
programming".
FreedomJournal.Tv continues
to air 5 times a week WCTV in Wadsworth. Schedule is available at the City of Wadsworth website
As a result of state video franchise
agreements, public access programming is in jeopardy in several states. ABC news recently featured a story on public access
tv in peril.

FreedomJournal.Tv has spearheaded a federal lawsuit challenging
local cable tv owners as well as the City of Akron to keep the cable tv network free for local producers. They have forced
producers off the air who cannot afford their fee to play their shows so we have to raise money for the lawsuit that benefits
both producers and the general viewing public!
We were denied the right to a jury trial in this case. The Federal lawsuit against Time
Warner and the City of Akron was dismissed by a summary judgement in August 2007. We filed for a rehearing but
that request was denied.
