Most of the conference panels are pretty boring. But Tony Perkins
(L) is talking with Dan Gillmor (C) and Joe Trippi (R) now. This is
pretty interesting.

meanwhile this eHome panel was a complete waste of time. They
always are. Especially whenever someone from AOL or Intel is
around.

est Int'l drops documentary after petition. Two
Irish filmmakers were inside the palace during
the
coup in Venezuela in 2002 (also on MeFi:
1
2).
I caught their powerful documentary,
The Revolution Will Not Be Televised here in Chicago (
review).
The film was just recently dropped from Canada Amnesty
International's upcoming
film festival in Vancouver after
opp
osition
parties in Venezuela organized a petition of over 7,000
signatures (
mp3).
The groups have concerns about it's accuracy, especially in it's
characterization
of the opposition to the democratically elected President Chavez.
A
petition supporting the film has been started as well. I found
the movie
stunning and a chilling account of how media outlets can shape,
gauge and control
public perception at home and abroad (
ergo
the Reagan miniseries debacle). Also notable I found was
Chavez's passion
to teach the poor to understand the constitution of their country -
impoverished
Venezuelans talking passionately about how they realize that
understanding politics
and policy is one of the first steps out of their poverty. I picture
Jerry Springer
trash trying to articulate any understanding of the U. S.
constitution.
Any Venezuela MeFi'ers wanna give a background on how the country
had been faring
since the coup and restoration? Was it
a
CIA action? I'm sure the honeymoon's over - how's it going?

The Counter-Revolution Has Been
Televised
02/10/2004 02:43 AMAs the Dean campaign started to raise serious money and support on the
Internet last fall, it became common for the likes of me to go around
trumpeting that this election might be for the Internet what the 1960
election was for television. In the wake of Iowa and New Hampshire, it
seems evident that, once again, I'm too early with a prediction that
may eventually prove accurate. If anything, this election may
reconfirm the preeminent role of the idiot box in American politics,
just as the Bush administration is demonstrating the power of
plutocracy to an extent not witnessed since Karl Rove's political hero
William McKinley was elected. I have seen the past, and it still
works. Politics as usual was working like God's wristwatch in Iowa,
where the RNC and various Republican PAC's outspent many of the
Democratic candidates on negative TV ads aimed exclusively at Dean.
But more damaging, in my opinion, was the remarkably open bias that
the traditional media seemed to display against Howard Dean in their
presentation of the news itself. I don't watch much television, but
what little I've seen in the last month indicated to me that Dean was
being systematically slimed. I witnessed, for example, an astonishing
are-you-still-beating-your-wife interview of Dean campaign manager Joe
Trippi by CNN's Paula Zahn. Zahn persisted in drilling in on Dean's
having said in an NPR interview that the notion the Bush
administration had known in advance about 911 in advance was "an
interesting theory," refusing, despite Trippi's protests, to read a
bit further in the transcript to Dean's unequivocal statement that it
was a theory he didn't share. Dean was taken to severe task for having
murmured something on Canadian television four years ago about flaws
in the Iowa caucus system. Fox spent an entire day calling him a liar
without ever being specific, in my hearing anyway, about what lies he
had purportedly told. CNN repeatedly reported that some Iowa voters
were referring to Dean volunteers as "Perfect Storm troopers." Indeed,
in my extremely random sampling of TV reporting before the Iowa
caucuses, I never heard a single reference to Dean that wasn't at
least mildly derisive. Then we had the yawp heard round the world.
Dean gave a valedictory to his supporters in Iowa that was no more
feverish, in my opinion, than many rally exhortations I've heard over
the years, even from such sober fellows as Dick Cheney. Countless
football coaches deliver such yells every fall week and yet are
lionized by their fans. But, according to the big media, Dean's
"yee-haaa" was the sound of political hara-kari. You would have
thought they'd caught Dean in bed with either a live man or a dead
woman. They belabored him for his shout as though he'd done something
truly heinous, like, say, leading America into a major war under false
pretenses, or robbing the poor to feed the rich, or dramatically
curtailing civil liberties. All the networks ran the tape like scenes
from a terrorist attack, to the accompaniment of much tsk-tsking and
head-shaking. Every pundit of any consequence proclaimed it Dean's
last howl. But, as I say, I couldn't see what was so bad about it.
Prior to this, Dean had seemed a little too tightly-wrapped for my
tastes. I was heartened to see him display any emotion beyond
justified indignation. But if you have a signal that can be heard
everywhere and you transmit often enough the news that someone is
crazy, just about everyone will start believing it, whatever the
evidence. This is especially true in a primary campaign where the
leading criterion driving candidate preference is the ability to beat
the incumbent. Given the relentless hammering he took from the media,
Dean was lucky to get 26% of the New Hampshire vote. Even so, Dean may
be done for. Or, more to the point, done in. Some will say that he
strung his own rope, but it looked more like a media lynching to me.
Assuming I'm right about this, why did television want to hang Howard
Dean?...

The Revolution Will Be Sketched Out on
Paper (Then Televised)
07/23/2004 01:26 PMDrazen Pantic used off-the-shelf, inexpensive hardware and software
combined with a community Wi-Fi network to broadcast to live
television: Citizen videobloggers take note. Pantic describes the
system he used (drawn as a simple schematic not much more complicated
than the actual installation) to perform a live, public-access
television broadcast managed by him and two colleagues. The topic? How
they were doing what they were doing, of course. Pantic's essay walks
through the drop in price, increase in quality, and proliferation of
open-source tools and patent-free/license-free standards that can
allow practically anyone to produce streaming, broadcast quality
television or recorded digital video for later editing and airing. We
established a wireless connection through a local, public WiFi network
maintained by the non-profit NYC Wireless, and broadcast from that
spot to a computer at MNN studios. The video and audio was captured by
the camcorder and fed into the laptop, where it was encoded as
MPEG4/AAC streams, then sent out as a unicast stream via the WiFi
connection. At MNN they played the stream through a scan converter --
which converts the stream on a computer into a video signal -- then
broadcast it live on the air. It's not just a sign of things to come.
It's a sign that things have changed....

Compare And Contrast Blogs And Reuters
On Joe Trippi's Speech
02/10/2004 02:41 AMWant to see an example of spin? No matter what your politics are,
it's interesting to note the
vastly different takes the
established media and some bloggers have on this morning's talk by Joe
Trippi at O'Reilly's Emerging Technologies Conference. This morning I
read the detailed notes from both
Howard
Rheingold and
Ross
Mayfield on Trippi's speech - which sounded interesting, if a bit
unfocused. However, both sets of notes show that he clearly talked up
the power of the internet while trashing the established "broadcast"
media. So, when Reuters - a member of the broadcast media - writes up
their own article on the talk, they spin it 180 degrees, and say that
Trippi blamed the internet for the campaign's
problems. The notes from the blogging attendees say Trippi called
the campaign a "dot com miracle", and yet Reuters claims Trippi said
the internet "hobbled" the campaign. These differing accounts of the
same exact speech don't match at all - and it certainly looks like
Reuters is the one doing the spinning here, taking a few quotes here
and there out of context to make their point. With the bloggers'
notes, you can see the context of what's being spoken about, and the
Reuters report gives none of that. I'm not one who believes that
bloggers are a "threat" to journalism, but the contrast here shows a
perfect (if a bit scary) example of just how easy it is for the press
to spin things to make their point.

05/25/2004 01:22 PMMercury News: Health costs hurting more small businesses. The cost of
health insurance -- ranked the top concern of small businesses since
1986 -- still holds that dubious distinction, a new nationwide survey
shows. But the percentage of firms affected by those costs has grown
substantially.
The health care system, or at least
the insurance system through which our health-care dollars flow, is in
a slow-motion collapse. This story is just one more data point.
Sooner or later, we'll have to make a choice. Should the U.S. go to
national health care, as every single other industrialized nation
provides for its citizens? Or should we go to a totally free-market
system -- not the bogus pretense of one we have now -- that leaves
millions without care of any kind? Or something else?
The insurance industry is systematically excluding people who will
someday need care -- shifting costs wherever possible to taxpayers.
This may be rational capitalism, but it's lousy public policy.
