[IMC-US] Indymedia Newsreal - April 2008 (and beyond)

[Steev Hise]

Hi folks,

April 2008 Newsreal is complete and on its way to Free Speech TV.
It's downloadable from here:
http://political.detritus.net/vid/newsreal/april2008-indyNewsreal.mp4
The runsheet is below.
Thanx to all the recent contributors, especially Jim Lockhart in  
Portland, Randy Rowland of Pepperspray, and George and Maia Ballis.  
Thanks also to Amy Dalton for advice and pointers to some possible  
segments and collaborators.

Unfortunately we're still just barely scraping by and we need more  
people sending stuff more often, and in a more timely manner (I think  
it's suboptimal to be running segments about events that are 4, 5, 6  
months or more old)...

It's looking more and more like in order to keep this project going,  
somebody or several somebodies need to be constantly scouring the  
web, both indy sites and elsewhere, and finding good videos, then  
persuading the producers of those videos to send broadcast-quality  
versions.  This is a lot of work and I just can't do it alone.  Is  
anyone at all interested in helpng with this?   If we can't get more  
involvement with this project soon, I can't guarantee it will  
continue much longer.
