Site
Info
I am often asked why I started this site. It all started when
I saw this
report one night on CNN. There was a
level of honesty about what was happening in Iraq that we
were just not hearing from most of the media at that time.
I recorded it from my DVR, converted it, and sent it to
some of my friends. And then again with the next one
(while that one was airing, I got online and subscribed
to Time
in order to read
his reports) and the next one...
To answer some common questions: I do not work for CNN (if I
did, I would be upgrading the early videos to the new
conversion standards!); I have met
Michael, but only
once; and I cannot advise you on how to contact him other
than by using the CNN comments area (although unfortunately I have
no idea whether they pass that stuff on to him). I think
he's an amazing reporter; judging by the mail I receive, a
lot of other people do, too. Not just here in the States
but all around the world.
The vast majority
of videos aired on CNN. They are archived as iPod clips.
These clips are playable on QuickTime7, (free for
Mac or
PC users.)
Additionally, each entry has a link that leads to a new
page containing the clip and the transcript for it.
Permalinks are also available.
All the categories have RSS feed tags; please note that
whenever I add old material I will mention it in the News
section, since the logged date will not trigger an RSS
notification.
Feel free to contact me with any questions about the
site, especially if you have problems with any link or
clip.
There is also a separate blog where I will post quick
comments and updates if news breaks when I am away from my
home computer.
