I'm really not trying to give the person ( a fews posts 'back') who was asking about 'signing up' and who commented on Boston's IMC as if there's a one to relation between Newswire posts or even Center Article ones in my failed effort to a enter here a simple HTML scrolled text file of act-events and citizen resources that worked before I submitted it but (IFRAME tag) whatever I used must have got overridden or something in the publishing process. Sorry but I'll say more about the persons questions back there. |
Being critical of the media in some cases can be being reflective, hopefully, of one's own contribution within it as a reporter, host, (active implied, or ought to be) citizen, of the realm of all that constitutes it, or maybe not, if relagating their role as that can be a potential for mass independent media, by all too often calling attention to what ought to be qualified for what it is when it is owned, operated, and controled by corporate interests, and any sensible apprasial of it ought show the narrowness of views and concerns and goals while the uttuerances of balanced, fair and such are tossed around. Underwtriten so-called public radio even says how wonderful they are, literally.
DIY- or supporter-sponsored ads when they serve as pointers to resources, not fossil fuel transporters, do not default to corporate ones just like 'the media' ought need to be qualified for what one is referring if not obvious as is the case when it veers from what was taken to be the [corporate] Free Press it's not 'alternative' -way past that - it's reporting realties with a focus that in some ways underwtites everything.
Two examples, maybe claify; if the DNC (when 'Talk of Pathetic radio or others has to 'tell' listerns what FTAA stands for that is telling of their balanced and fair coverage up to the point when it makes it into their coverage - Patriots Acts and such long after discussed in cmmunities and by individuals and organizations - still waiting for, 'Wait Wait Don't Tell Us About 'Depleted' Uranium and much more) or a particular candidate are not well know it is partly the responsibility of most everyone indenpentent of what is presented, to seek out for themselves, and indepedent media to present discussion, not to stand back and say we have to 'educate people' because 'the media' isn't doing it.
This will eventually be at "the Threat of [www.goodexample.info]" and along with AirwaveWEB referenced radio programs and other resources that rather than being archived by date will be orgainizned in a form that maybe resembles the artificial separation of play spaces in pre-kingarten classroos, sensory, reading, dramatic, writing, gross motor, etc. whereby social and emotional growth and development and much else occurs in all of them but it may serve needs of adults to refer to them as separate areas.
Some Relatively Independent, No 'Debt Card' Sponsors, Act-Events
More people knowing about and doing something about it will probably result when for example something like the DNC-selected 'candidates is seeked out in a complmentary effort along with independent media coverage, and outreach by IMC-reflectors and action.
If the it was reported that Saddam was now a adherring to human rights' standards and conventions it is still up to the person reflecting upon this 'news' to come to their own conclusion maybe leading to Weapons of Mass Dissent when it is continuted to be reported. What does matter is one's response to situations, not just 'enlightended silence' (Prospects for Peace in the Middle East
by
Noam Chomsky;
Presented at the First Annual Maryse Mikhail Lecture, “No peace without justice; no justice without truth”,
The University of Toledo, March 4, 2001).
Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner, someone who is much more than 'bald, bold, and bright' once, possibly as reported and recorded by Freemanz (though a unique enough name, when on NCR why not call more attention than you must surely already do, to those who may not know what you're on about? Or does it require a silly request to say Get Lost with Andy radio program to dedicated a Phil Ochs or Joan Baez song to you?) said something to the effect of someone with data from one organization say on air quaility bringing it to a meetig regarding 'two years waing on the so-called 'Silver Line' which leads into a segment heard on NCR on 31 october 2003.
Critical of that which one values: maybe No Censorship Radio could give more clear references to "sister" radio stations and other resources generally, i.e., rather than a vague refernce give the actual day and time of say Martin Voelker's No-U-Turn Radio. This is not only to highlight NCR but other radio programs and others could help mind the gaps and strengthen existing connections by more possibly enlightening references extending beyond those who may know already. AirwaveWEB, though like some who say it's 'only as good as our last pizza' in terms of attempting to reflect the actual realty of times that programs are on but sometimes falling short of this goal.
