We should have known. A First Amendment conference featuring Arianna Huffington and Daniel Ellsberg–both appearing in the past week on “The Colbert Report” — would prove very popular. Especially since CFAC’s 9/29 & 9/30 conference at UC Berkeley also includes Judith Miller, Gabriel Schoenfeld, Dan Weintraub, Dan Gillmor, Phil Bronstein and former NSA general counsel Robert Deitz . . . among others.
“IN CONTEMPT,” CFAC’s 2006 Free Speech and Open Government Assembly, is fully booked. But we expect to admit people from the waiting list, so go ahead and register now. We’ll keep you posted by email.
