CONTRIBUTIONS FOR FORMER PHNOM PENH PHOTOJOURNALIST TRACEY SHELTON


Longtime Phnom Penh photojournalist Tracey Shelton was recently robbed
in Libya. She lost all her working equipment -- camera, lenses, laptop
-- in a violent invasion by Libyan soldiers in her hotel room. Tracey
escaped, but she's now without gear.

Cantina and the OPCC are seeking donations to help Tracey get back on
her feet and working. Anything you could contribute is appreciated, and
can be dropped off at the bar at Cantina. Hurley will be taking
donations through Wednesday night and through Thursday, which coincides
with Cantina's eighth anniversary.

There will also be a celebration for Cantina on Thursday night, and it
would be fantastic if you could toast the institution as well as help a
fellow journalist.

We look forward to seeing you, and thank you for your help.

Cantina is located on Sisowath Quay, just north of Street 178. If you
can't make it but would like to donate, call board member Rick
Valenzuela at 092 470 702 or email him at 
rick@rickv.com.

OPCC presents Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism

Ever wonder if your news on the television is fair and balanced?

Find out by watching “Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism”

Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News, have been running a “race to the bottom” in television news. This documentary takes an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public’s right to know.
