 LISTEN to:
 http://FreeTheMedia.org/radio
 
 John Perry Barlow, Paul Garrin, Cristine Wang
 discuss the issues of
 
 Media Democracy vs. Corporate Fascism
 
 How can we bring an end to corporate
 and government domination of media
 and access?  What can we do to create
 a democratic and sustainable space
 in a privately owned media infrastructure?
 
 Who are the corporations and state agencies
 that own, control, surveil, the media
 infrastructure and set the rules that
 govern it?  What are the barriers to
 entry for creating a publicly managed
 media space?  How can these barriers
 be overcome to create a fair and
 democratic digital commons?
 
 Who is ICANN?  Are they the 'WTO of the
 Internet' How do they threaten individual
 freedoms in cyberspace?  Who has the real
 authority over the Internet and how did
 they get it?  How can we define public
 space in a privately owned physical world?
 
 Listen to a dialogue about these issues and 
 more with cyberspace pioneer John Perry Barlow, 
 founder of Name.Space  Paul Garrin and 
 co-founder of FREE.THE.MEDIA!, Cristine Wang,
 and the Information Liberation Front on WBAI
 99.5 FM NY.
