>This is the freespeech.org newsletter for December 4, 1998. You are
>receiving it because you signed up for membership at www.freespeech.org.
>Normally, this newsletter is weekly, but due to technical problems, I
haven't

>item in this document. In the meantime, allow me to introduce (or
>re-introduce) myself. I'm Joey Manley, your content maven, community
>coordinator, and online host. All matters relating to the content of the
>freespeech.org suite of websites should be directed to me,
>joey@freespeech.org. Technical support questions and comments should
>be directed to webmaster@freespeech.org.

>The purpose of this newsletter is to keep you updated on what we're up

>>From the site:
>
>"The role of media in the making of foreign policy has recently received
>a lot of attention. Lurid pictures and reports of unspeakable attrocities
>prod the 'experts', public and politicians into action. The Yugoslav
>conflict is perhaps one of the best examples of the media influence in
>our global village. The images and articles appearing all over the world
>have usually painted a very simplified picture of the conflict.
Throughout
>the crisis, the opinions coming from the Yugoslavs have been filtered and
>interpreted, thus denying direct access to the ideas and facts coming
from
>ex-Yugoslav lands. The purpose of these pages is to try to offer direct
>access to the (translated) articles from the Croatian, Yugoslav (Serbian
and
>Montenegrin) and Bosnian press."

>an 18 1/2-hour television series commemorating the 50th anniversary of
>the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

>And don't stop there. Check out the Just Solutions Human Rights
>Advocacy Kit, now available online at http://www.freespeech.org/js.

>ITEM: Resistance is What They Are Hacking For!

>"This website is dedicated to all the hackers who use their work to fight

access
>and then they post messages like "I was here !!!" instead of a message
>with more content. Thousands of people will visit a hacked website, even
>newspapers and TV will pay attention on it, so why don't they post
>something intelligent. The best example for an intelligent hack was the
>famous Yahoo-hack by P4NTZ/H4GiS in 1997, the whole world paid attention
on
>it. P4NTZ/H4GiS claimed to free Kevin Mitnick, a hacker who was arrested
in
>1995 for a crime he did not commit. Now many people know about Kevin and
>the campaign to free him will go on. Here you'll find some good examples

Invitation to join the WebArt debate.
Is the WWW a new medium for art ?
Is the WWW the basis for a new artform ?
These are critical questions now for anybody involved
in creative activity and the Internet. An international
group of artists at http://r2001.com has addressed these
and related issues recently with the publication of the
WebArt Manifesto and the creation of a new WebArt Gallery.
In order to foster public debate of the issues, and to
give an opportunity for all shades of opinion to be
represented, the WebArt Forum has been opened at
http://r2001.com/cgi-bin/miva?bbs.mv
where you are now invited to participate.
We would be grateful if you could review R2001's
initiatives in this field, offer your critical
response through the channels mentioned, and give as much
publicity as you can to the efforts we are making to
stimulate discussion of these matters.
To assist you in gaining familiarity with our activities,
here are some of the key locations involved:
