[comradio-l] [cma-l] Community radio in funding crisis: The Guardian 24/08/09

[Karl Hartland]

Couldn't agree more Steve, that is indeed what it is starting to look like.

This is a matter of 'quick or dead' really...but on a slightly longer 
timescale perhaps...it's not the only issue we face!

We've got more problems than this individual issue and each station, in 
my opinion, needs to appoint someone within them to whip round these 
edges...let's get organised!

Get this one rocking and we have a stronger collective base for all 
other points of action and debate- this is what the CMA is here for, 
THIS is why we pay our subs, *THIS is where our strength is at in the 
wider picture!*

Please sign it

Please get others to sign it

Excuses are barriers to success! Do we not want success???
