Important: American Radio Bill

07 April 2015

As I am sure many of you are aware American terrestrial radio has never paid performance royalties for master use. A number of attempts have been made to change this over the years but the radio lobby always wins out. See the Fair Play Fair Pay Outreach document about the latest attempts.

It would be very helpful if you could get any of your artists to support this Statement in Support of the Fair Play Fair Pay Act of 2015. All you have to do is e-mail their name to fiona@themmf.net by 10am Monday April 13th and she will add it to the paper and submit it to SAG-AFTRA for their press conference next week.

Please support this.

Best Regards,

Jon Webster
