Dave,

IP readers may want to know about Rocketboom.com

So check out today's Rocketboom.com vlog on police violence in the 90th precinct of New York.

<http://www.rocketboom.com/vlog/>

Surprisingly good video.

A new way to tell the news? The people's TV stations? The cost is so low it is free. Some folks estimate that more folks watch Rocketboom - when, where and how they want, not by appointment -- than some broadcast TV from the incumbents.

Suppose we had Rocketboom correspondents in cities all over Iraq? Or other global trouble spots? What would be the narrative then?

In any case, this is getting very interesting very fast.
