WTN-L: World Tibet Network News
The WTN-L list distributes WTN News, a more or less daily newsletter on Tibet. WTN News contains news reports from the major news gathering agencies, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations. Both Chinese and Tibetan government reports are published freely. Very often WTN News has major stories on Tibet before they appear in local newspapers or on electronic media, and many stories that never make it to the major news media. WTN News is published by the Canada Tibet Committee.
