I spoke at the City Wide meeting last night about this. People expressed interest, so I'd thought I'd post the Students for a Free Tibet call to action email. (below) Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,

We recently learned that the Tibetan language broadcasts of Radio Free Asia (RFA) and Voice of America (VOA) - US-based radio programs that broadcast into Tibet - may be in danger of losing some critical US government funding. The Broadcasting Board of Governors' (BBG), which oversees RFA and VOA, has proposed a reduction of US congressional funding for the Tibetan broadcasts. This is very alarming! RFA and VOA are virtually the only independent sources of news available to Tibetans inside Chinese-occupied Tibet, whose access to outside information is almost entirely restricted by China's heavy media censorship.
This is the place to suggest program ideas, along with the best time slot and possible group or person(s) to see that it happens.
