From Josh Silver at FreePress:
"Right now, Congress is considering a bill that would give thousands of communities across the country access to their own truly local, community Low Power radio stations — and we need your help. There's never been a more critical time to raise awareness of this issue.Our ally, the United Church of Christ, has produced a fantastic one-hour documentary, "Low Power FM: The People's Choice." It shows firsthand the amazing work these stations do across the country. (Visit this link for more info about the show.)
It has been offered to NBC TV stations nationwide as part of the "Horizon of the Spirits" series and will air starting this weekend. But only 17 NBC affiliates have agreed to play it.
We need you to make a call to your local NBC affiliate and tell them you'd like to see "Low Power FM: The People's Choice." It only takes a minute, but local actions like this are effective and will make all the difference.
Click here to see if the documentary will be aired in your town.
If your NBC affiliate has no plans to air it, find your local station in this PDF list of NBC affiliates (if you don't have Adobe Reader, click here, fill in your zip code and look for your local NBC station).
Call the station and ask for the program director. Tell them you'd like to see the "Horizon of the Spirit" program called "Low Power FM: The People's Choice." Tell them that it's running on many NBC stations across the country and you want to see it on yours.
Together, we can increase opportunities for local voices in communities across America. For more information about Low Power radio, be sure to visit the homepage for the Prometheus Radio Project, the leaders for low power radio across the nation."
