Certainly.  I sense what we're going to try to do, as soon as all 
goes well with getting the site up, is to start building 
relationships with progressive news services all over the place.  We 
wouldn't be interested in all of their news, but they may have some 
kind of tagging system that will indicate which items are 
specifically related to alternatives categories.  If we can work out 
some kind of automatic system to have that kind of news appear on our 
site, we'll in good shape.

I don't exactly know what our project would be able to offer Real 
News in exchange, but depending on how engaged news services want to 
be with us, I'm sure we can develop a reciprocal relationship.

Does anyone on this list know any of the Real News poeple 
personally?  I've met some of them 
(http://www.therealnews.com/web/index.php?thisdataswitch=0&thisid=224&thisview=item) 
at media reform conferences but they wouldn't know me.
