Ravi Singh Speaks About Democracy
Chuck Olsen at Minnesota Stories featured Steven Clift today, who hosted an International Symposium on Local E-Democracy.

The Symposium was designed to illustrate the importance of media, including vlogging, to Democracy. Ravi Singh, a guest speaker at this symposium, points out that 75 million people get their news online, and politicians that aren’t yet on the online bandwagon are in trouble. Although there is likely to be controversy around the topics of “Broadcasting” vs “Narrowcasting,” this is the start of an important discussion.

Tune in and expect to see dare-I-say-it Republicans joining in on the vlogging campaign trail. Kudos to John Edwards for being the first.
