... Developing Story...
According to www.DemocracyNow.org, "Minutes before NYC Indymedia was prepared to sign a temporary lease yesterday [Aug 5, 2004], the landlord pulled out of the deal after being approached by law enforcement.
Police have been in regular contact with many buildings in the city ahead of the Republican National Convention (RNC), especially those near Madison Square Garden and other protest locations.
The IMC was hoping to rent a large space near Madison Square Garden during the Republican National Convention."
An Appeal from Naomi Klein
"NYC IMC needs our help. Though capable of making media miracles with almost no money, the convention coverage will cost tens of thousands of dollars for rental space and new equipment. I hope you will join me in helping to make sure that the these remarkable media activists have the tools they need to tell the world what is really going on in New York City at this historic moment. The convention begins at the end of August, time is short, please give generously."
Sincerely,
Naomi Klein
