Enter Casey in the search box and vote so they will show it.

Damn, a chance to be the media!

Also if you get a chance watch the Battle for America, damn it's beautiful.

3. Have I mentioned how much I love Al Gore?
First the internet and now this?

4. 2 things.
1. just because this piece is on the website, i presume it doe s not automatically mean they are playing it on CTV

2. I watched CTV the first day, and it felt like one long genX sneaker commercial. Gore killed a perfectly good progressive station without replacing it with a progressive station. Also, isn't TV passe?

5. Bull, if enough people vote for it, it will be on air
and I watched Newsworld International myself, and while I was sad to see it go, I love current!

Current will be as progressive as we make it, but it's won't work unless we sign up for Current and put the stuff we want on air.

7. We just disagree, I think that Current is brillant
why don't you like it?

Did you see the piece on the G8 protest, or the slums of Nyrobi? Current has so much potential, I just hate seeing people trash it.

8. Right wingers can submit shorts too. I would have preferred an
ideologically driven network. Once again, MY OPINION.

9. Yes, but if no one likes what they make then they won't show it.

Have you seen their websites, like they can film and edit anything that would ever go on current.

I understand why you're pissed, but why not make something of your own that has your opinion? Isn't that better than having an opinion feed to you?

BTW sorry, I think that I came across rather harshly and that was not my intention.

11. Well, plenty of us can make videos, and I promise that anything
done by a DUer will have plenty of fact and opinion.

Just don't dog Current yet, it is what we make it.
