If you like the idea of re-envisioning the Twin Cities local TV news, help make it happen! A group has formed in the Twin Cities to work on producing a local, nightly, independent TV news (which will also be distributed online). Attend the kick-off planning meeting on Saturday, January 10 at 1 p.m. at the Walker Library in Minneapolis! Experience with daily news or locally produced TV news is especially helpful, but not required. Learn how you can play a role in this much-needed addition to the Twin Cities media landscape. For more, read previous posts 1, 2, and 3.

Dear Nancy,
I commend what you are doing. Iwould like to attend on Saturday, but have to be home on the telephone. I will be on radio with MindFreedom in Oregon. It is about shock treatment being given to a man in the community living in a Housing plus services home set up by the Health Dept because all the Human Services group homes are full. They don’t let anyone get off meds. The meds cause delusions, hallucinations, confusion, unabality to follow your thoughts, suicidal ideation, suicide or homicide and death.
