Earth Liberation Front Press Office
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The North American Earth Liberation Front Press Office (NAELFPO or ELFPO) was a legal, above-ground news service dedicated to publicizing the direct action of the Earth Liberation Front (ELF).
The Press Office received anonymous communiques from the ELF and distributed their political and social motives behind the covert and underground cells to the media and public. [1]
ELFPO was founded in 1999 by Craig Rosebraugh and Leslie James Pickering. It was founded in Portland, Oregon, "to work to explain the importance and necessity of clandestine guerrilla action in a revolutionary movement to liberate the Earth from the stranglehold of the system." [2]
