Sam Lowry: Take Back the Airwaves

Flip on the television and surf for a little while.  No matter what
time it is, one thing can always be counted on: mainstream news today
sucks.  Maybe it's Turner's fault, maybe it's Murdoch's fault, but Edward R.
Murrow is probably rolling in his grave.  Either way, my generation has
grown up in the age of cable news trash where only a grain of
mega-media journalism can be counted on as truthful, unbiased, and
unfiltered.  But now a movement is underway to reclaim television
and print, putting the power of the press back in the hands of the
everyday person.  It's called citizen journalism, and camphone citizen
journalism is the grease for its gears.
