EA News is a fast, accurate and factual news relay service released every Monday. In a `Reuters' style format it will share objective LGBT community news and information around the British Isles and inevitably Europe and the Rest of the World. EA News allows you to contact the originator direct for further information. It is impartial and unbiased. EA News does not contain any editorial comment, only concise, constructive news relating to LGBT issues. EA News is disseminated free to all subscribers and is also available through a fax and postal service. In order to increase circulation and awareness we encourage the further dissemination of EA News (and this announcement) throughout other lists and to additional organisations. EA News is designed to be made available to all members of our communities through its reproduction and delivery to local pubs and clubs where self funding allows. When redistributing, please add your organisation's name to the bottom of the publication: "Reproduced and delivered to you by ……………" *** Posting of News *** Any affiliate of the Equality Alliance can post information to the EA News relay. To affiliate send a message to EAnews@AOL.com with the subject title "affiliate" and you will be sent an affiliation pack with levels of subscription. You can subscribe to the EA as a full member organisation or individual, or just to the EA News service. Remember EA News is free to receive, but only affiliates can post news onto the relay.
