TEN YEARS WITH FREEMUSE


APPENDIX I:   MEDIA COVERAGE & WEBSITE

Since 1998, when the 1st World Conference on Music and Censorship took place, Freemuse activities have been covered by a large amount of media.

The media coverage includes more than 1000 articles in magazines, newspapers and on websites from all over the world. There have also been close to 200 radio broadcasts about Freemuse. Freemuse has also appeared on TV stations such as CNN in Turkey and the US, the Arab satellite channel Rotana and Arte as well as national TV stations in Spain, Afghanistan, Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

www.freemuse.org was launched on 31 January, 2001. It was the first website to deal with banned music around the world. Today it is the world’s largest database on music censorship. In early 2008, the total number of people visiting www.freemuse.org reached 1,000,000.

The website covers incidents of censorship of music as well as death threats and serious ill-treatment of musicians on every continent. The website is regularly updated and includes records of censorship in more than 80 countries.
