IMC Radio News Minutes 2005-04-19

Recap: Sandra Ahten, Kimberlie Kranich and Carol Ammons really came 
through this week with stories surrounding issues of racial disparity and 
LGBT rights.  Dave Berliner rebroadcast a story he produced for Free 
Speech Radio News about the proposed 2nd nuclear reactor in Clinton, Il. 
Kim's talk about the history of LGBT rights was cut short.  It timed out 
to 20 minutes but only 12 minutes of it was aired to prevent flooding and 
make room for Carol's piece and Dave's piece.  There is a problem with one 
of the mic cables in the studio and it should be replaced to prevent 
further difficulties during interviews.

Outreach:  If the radio would do more phone interviews to reach out to the 
community on the racial disparity issue and the LGBT rights issue maybe it 
could get more people involved.  Can WRFU in anyway contribute to this 
process?
