Nice. This suggests how the news of the future may flow to the internet. All it takes is people on the spot uploading videos and news reports and then a process of spotting the best ones. With search engines like google, and with YouTube, who needs news reporters, especially since the typical AP stringer is usually committed to the other side?

You know, folks can make fun of the mindless crap on youtube all they want, but the fact remains it has the potential to be an amazing communications tool.

This White House has said more about the murder of an abortion doctor than it has about the Iran election. Why hasn't he delivered a message to those people in the streets of Iran?
Seems BHO has more schmoozing to do to get Mahmoud's fist unclinched eh?
This POTUS is a colossal arrogant bastard.

The fact was, and is, the MSM, both print and TV, to include FOX,PBS,NPR, A-N-CBS's, MSN and all the others fell flat on their asses. That also includes the Conservative Blogs! The leftist blogs did a pretty good job of following it through Twitter and Facebook before the Iranian Gov. pulled the plug..
It is a huge story; a Middle East country going through nothing less significant than the Czech Velvet Revolution, the U.S.Civil War, French Revolution and Vietnam's Tet all rolled in a bundle - and the MSM chose to ignore it!!!
I wonder how many days it will take the MSM to get the story out - or maybe they don't want to since it embarrasses Obama and his outreach to a fraudulent regime.
I bet you won't hear the MSM tell you that half the anti-riot police in the streets of Tehran were speaking Arabic (Iranians speak Farsi) and are believed to be Hezbollah thugs imported from Lebanon.
Twitter, via some guy in downtown Tehran, told me. I'm 73.... and I'm joining Twitter. It works!!!
