- November 17, 2011
The destruction or defacement by city police and/or clean-up crews of at least part of the "Occupy Wall Street" library in Zuccotti Park is unacceptable. Those responsible, from the cops and sanitation workers directly involved to whoever in the bureaucracy or the Mayor's office ordered the library trashed or refused to step in and stop it, should be disciplined.

- After the dust settles from the upcoming election, come join us for lunch on Saturday, November 6th for a lively discussion of what it all means to you.
Helping you understand the election results and its impact on policies you care about are three well-known legislative observers:
1. Laura Leslie, WUNC legislative reporter
2. Chris Fitzsimon, author of the daily Fitzsimon File and executive director of NC Policy Watch
3. Dean Debnam, executive director of Public Policy Polling
Get their take on the elections—and ask them how the new North Carolina Legislature affects your interests. Also, we will have special luncheon guest speaker, Ken Lewis—a former statewide U.S. Senate candidate.
Please join us at the NC State Faculty Club (4200 Hillsborough Street) in Raleigh at 11:00am on November 6. RSVP today at http://www.commoncause.org/NC/Election2010WrapUp.

Citizens Lobby Clear Channel Radio
The Sacramento Media Group (an affiliate of California Common Cause), the Media Action Center and Occupy Sacramento met with Clear Channel station executives on February 6, 2012, to discuss concerns about the radio giant's one-sided political talk radio programming, and their public interest obligation to the community of Sacramento.
They discussed potential ways to better balance political discourse on public airwaves - especially talk radio programs - in this special presidential election year.
