To spend all this energy discussing a name just seems soooo liberal; self-stroking and a waste of energy.

Dear Mark Berg,

We're making great strides in the fight against Big Media thanks to people like you joining together to demand a media system that serves democracy, not the bottom lines of a few giant corporations.

You're in the vanguard of this important movement. And we need your help to keep gaining momentum.

A few months ago, Free Press distributed 10,000 media reform action toolkits -- for free -- to help citizens mobilize for media reform. The toolkits provide easy-to-understand information on media reform and materials to help people write op-ed articles, file public comments with the FCC, challenge broadcast licenses and cable franchise renewals, and enlist others in the fight for media reform.

The first batch of toolkits was snapped up within 36 hours, but thousands of activists missed out.

With your help, we can raise $100,000 to put 20,000 more toolkits in the hands of local organizers and educate legions of people about crucial media issues that will determine the future of our democracy.

As we square off against well-heeled lobbyists in Washington, our only power comes from millions of people united for media reform.

Become a member of the Free Press Action Fund today. Your contribution will help us arm activists across the country with the tools they need to be effective (and we'll even send you a thank-you gift).

Onward,

Robert W. McChesney
President and Cofounder
Free Press

Hi Robert -

Good to see that you're keeping the fire going - and the documentaries coming. Your Portland, OR opening at the Clinton was one of the highlights of last year - and we would be happy to do the same again with any of your other films.

Here's my suggestion for a name:

Blackbox Media

It's probably in use, but I like it anyway.

Best,

Greg H.
Clinton Street Theater

You might consider the name, "Running Water" for the new organization.

* It is an "Action Name". Most people relate to "Run" as in responding to a need quickly and decisively. Water is a universal need like many of the items/issues that are the focus of your energies.

* Water itself is coming to the fore as a major issue re: global engineering companies such as Bectal seek to convert water to a controlled enterprise.

* Running Water has a historic connotation that will be recognized by many. In the Bible, Book of John, there is a parable called the Woman by the Well. The history preceding that interaction speaks to us today. Briefly, this period in the history of the Jewish people began about 732 BC with the fall of Samaria/Israel. In 587 BC, Judah fell. Other major events occurred. Subsequent history found the Samarian Jews in the North and those of Judah in the South. They were bitterly divided. This history is instructive to those who would better understand the dynamics of the Red Sates/Blue States division we are experiencing in this country.

You efforts may significantly skew history over the next one to two decades if you are successful. The key is not bombastic rhetoric in the sense that "we hold the truth, dummies", but rather it is removing the pollution of ignorance and greed from our national Running Water, that Spirit of Our Nation, Our Nation of the People, by the People, and for the Greater Good of All Our People.

there are quite a few really good ideas out there. Maybe you should pick a few and take a vote on 10 to narrow them down. Meanwhile, you could add these

Visual Reality Productions

Truth Factor Productions

Freedom Productions

Good luck, may the best name win!
