overtime i imagine that our site will provide content for others.  i see it definitely as holding the potential for reciprocal relationship.  flowing both ways.

i know paul jay, the guy who initiated this project several years ago.  we met on the same panel at the first media reform conference and i hosted a house party with others in the community for a real news conversation.  and interestingly enough, at that meeting of about 30 people, a very strong thread running through the conversation that night was where were the stories about people making a difference, the solutions, the alternatives, the heros rather than the villains, etc.  and they don't really have that.  neither do alot of news outlets....

once we have clarity around this in terms of a policy and approach, i'm happy to make that connection and i'm sure paul jay would be receptive to that.  good content is good content!

love
sheri
