PLAN is coming to a radio station near you!

That's right, we have a radio station! We're working on getting it up and running but we are very excited for this new opportunity to reach out to Progressives in this great state. 

 

Reno News & Review has the story:

 

 

Bob Fulkerson, executive director of theProgressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada (PLAN), has long been an advocate of reviving the federal “fairness” doctrine, a policy that allows federal regulators to police the content of broadcasting and require broadcasters to provide time for certain points of view.

 

Now, Fulkerson may have found a more direct way to get a different viewpoint on the air. PLAN has been granted a radio station broadcasting license by the Federal Communications Commission.

 

The development could put a different point of view on the air in a field mostly dominated by conservative talk.

 

“We have three years to go on the air. … We’re going to talk to the folks at KVMR in Nevada City [Calif.] in January to see how they’ve been able to do successful community radio,” Fulkerson said. “I was thinking of calling it Radio Free Nevada but then realized the young folk wouldn’t get the metaphor.”
