We've been talking lately about citizen journalism... and what a videoblogger could do better than Traditional Media.
here is an example: http://www.ourmedia.org/node/53426 This is Andrew Odom. this guy is just beginning. "hello world". he's just talking about his life...which you may not care about. But what i see is someone who is becoming a communication node. he's earning to create and distribute media. usually he's just sit and watch TV, read magazine, and listen to radio in his car. now he's flipping the script. and maybe itll just be his freinds and family who care what he makes. maybe he'll slowly start gathering freidns outside his personal sphere. like many of us in here have. if an big event happens in Savannah, Georgia(where he lives)...he's now prepared to cover it. This does not assume he'll be more truthful than Traditional Media. but he may be.... at least he'll be local and not some guy from NYC who dropped in to cover the live event. Andrew could probably provide a context/connection that is missing right now with "objective" reporting. a nice addition to the "factual" information that Tradional Media provides. another node has sprung up.
