New Network Forming...no gov't or corporate money!
:bounce:

I heard the PR person on AAR this afternoon. I couldn't remember the name of the corp but found the following info on KOS. This sounds great. The goal is to broadcast in 6 English speaking countries and to broadcast 6 hours a day. They plan to stream on the internet, they have had discussions with dish TV and with Comcast. The plan seems fairly far along. Sounds great.

Here's the KOS post and link to KOS:

This needs to be blasted into the Blogosphere!

IWT news
I don't really care if you want to miss out on the chance for truely independent news.

NO corporate backing, NO government funding, and NO commercials.

Just independent WORLD news, supported ONLY by the people.

http://www.iwtnews.com/

Watch the VIDEO, do the SURVEY, then you decide if they merit your support!

Now Click on the link and freep this survey! They desperately want Kossacks input (and yes, they wouldn't mind your donation...)

Click on...

Diaries :: m16eib's diary :: ::
Independent World Television is building the world's first global independent news network. Online and on TV, IWTnews will deliver independent news and real debate from professional and citizen journalists -- without funding from governments, corporations or commercial advertising. Using the web to organize and raise funds across borders, IWTnews is building an international movement for democracy.


Sounds pretty fucking noble, huh?

A message from Jeff Cohen:


"Friends,
This is a project I've been working on since the election -- an effort to build the world's first indepedent global news channel...
independent of corporations and government... Sponsored only by its viewers...an alternative to Fox News and CNN.

Check out the new website
http://www.iwtnews.com/ and new video. Spread the word to your lists.
Let me know what you think.

-- jeff cohen, founder of FAIR"


Do yourself a favor... If you do anything today pass this link along on your Blog, in an email, on a message board. Anywhere!

If Kossacks don't believe in this then everything else they have been doing is a complete fucking waste of time!

You know I am right...
minor UPDATE: One day (perhaps right here and right now?) a formerly-ignorant-person will thank you for this... I thank you! ;) Spread the REAL NEWS!
