Veracifier
Here comes Veracifier.
Welcome to Veracifier, which we've launched with one simple objective to start: providing a place for original ideas, reporting and commentary.
There's not enough of that these days, at least, not enough for us.
So in the days ahead, you'll see a couple of interpretations of that promise.
Mondays through Thursdays, Joshua Micah Marshall and his team at TPM Media bring you TPM TV, a new videoblog with the insights they've come to be known for at talkingpointsmemo.com. TPM Media are a new kind of journalist outfit; the kind that wears its independence on its sleeve and has an army of thousands of readers and contributors helping them get to the root of a story. Over the past months, for instance, TPM doggedly pursued and published information on the US Attorney scandals, and simply put, owned the story, as admitted by no less than the LA Times. We're incredibly thrilled to be launching a video venture with them.
On Fridays, we'll be posting exclusive episodes of Alive in Baghdad: A New Look, a new series from the team of citizen journalists behind the acclaimed Alive in Baghdad and Alive in Mexico videoblogs. The series adds new context and information to episodes of Alive in Baghdad, updating on what's happened since, and sharing details about the report we may not have learned at the time.
Most importantly, we want to know what you, the viewers think. That's why there's a comments link under every video. An email address on every page. And a link to upload your own video. Whether its your own commentary, footage, an original report, or simply your thoughts recorded on a webcam, we want to see it, hear it, and put it on the network.
Veracifier is part of Next New Networks, a company creating micro-television networks over the internet for targeted communities. Thanks for checking us out. We hope you'll stick around.
