Yet another journalist shot at, and in this case killed, while trying  
to bring a story out. Shocking news. My condolences to those who knew  
him.
I hope that globally the indymedia network can mobilise some kind of  
appropriate response. (I don't know where such communication would  
take place, imc-communication at lists.indymedia.org perhaps?)

The IMC UK network is having it's annual national gathering next  
weekend so perhaps the timing is pretty good for us as a network to  
respond in some way to the news.

One thing I'd personally like to do this week is to organise a public  
screening (in London) of some of Brads films and use that to draw  
attention to the situation is oaxaca, the issue of journalists being  
killed and to this incident in particular, hopefully encouraging the  
people attending to take some form of action to express their outrage  
at Brads killing.

Does anyone, (perhaps NYC indy people) know where I could download  
screening quality version of Brads films (and other peoples material  
on oaxaca)?
If there is sufficient material available, perhaps other screening  
collectives would consider screenings this week.
