[cma-l] Community Radio Politics Programme - Please Help!

[Eleanor Shember-Critchley]

Dear All

I'm reading with great interest the ongoing discussions about covering the upcoming 
political period. We're in the middle of writing a feature for the Community Radio 
Toolkit on this subject. Please email toolkit at radioregen.org if you have any station 
policies, training documents, scripts or procedures on handing politicians. Please 
also let me know if you would like to see anything specific covered. The feature will 
be made available through the CRT very soon.

Yours

Eleanor
