New San Diego Indymedia Editorial Policy
San Diego Indymedia,

Today we are releasing our new editorial policy, written by the San Diego Indymedia Editorial Collective. This editorial policy is inspired by our mission statement, the Chicago Indymedia Editorial Policy and the Global Indymedia Principles of Unity.

Please give us your comments and feedback about this policy. As our mission statement says, we are committed to using media production and distribution as a tool for promoting social and economic justice in San Diego County. It is our goal to give voice to those people under-represented in the mainstream media. We hope to hear back from the broader San Diego community that is working for social justice and to know what you think of our editorial policy and our editorial work up to now.

Also, if you would like to join Indymedia to help create the media revolution to make revolution a reality, check out our how to participate page.

106.9FM Threatened by FCC, Refuses to Comply
106.9fm ,

Around mid-day on August 2nd, the FCC issued a 24-hour demand for the shut-down of 106.9fm with a threat of a $10,000 fine. 106.9fm, one of two pirate radio stations operating in San Diego, has been reclaiming the airwaves for a little over one year. The FCC has visited the undisclosed location three times before, however never with such a serious threat. 106.9fm rebroadcasts the content of a local internet radio station, Radioactive San Diego, which can heard at www.radioactiveradio.org.
