Brice Phillips
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brice Phillips is a ham radio operator in Hancock County, Mississippi. He operates WQRZ, an FCC licensed, low-power FM station. He gained national media attention for his efforts during the Hurricane Katrina disaster, both in warning people to evacuate and in directing survivors to relief centers. Bill Moyers, in his television show Moyers on America, used Mr Phillips' example to highlight the importance of media diversity (and the dangers of media consolidation).
