Independent World Television hopes to bring the concept of citizen journalism to television.

Paul Jay's idealists grail? Network TV beholden only to the public. Jay's mantra? "No corporate ownership. No corporate underwriting. No government funding. No commercial advertising."

No better team could be assembled. Definitely top shelf. Some names familiars to bloggers would be: Howard Zinn, FAIR's Jeff Cohen, Kenneth Roth of Human Rights Watch (HRW), investigative journalist, Greg Palast, Robert McChesney of Free Press, Helen Caldicott, MD, journalist and author, Naomi Klein, Buzzflash's Mark Karlin, Amy Goodman of Democracy Now!, Janeane Garofalo, and many more.

Broadcast will begin in early 2006. Where will you see it? See FAQ.

ABOUT EBC

It wasn't long after 9/11, September 11, 2001, that I began this website. I felt compelled to connect with other people around the globe. I had recently heard about "weblogs" or "blogs" and I dove right into Blogger.com. I searched for others to connect with online and I found Ageless. It led to meeting many great friends to discuss events of the day. From then on it snowballed. Most importantly we offered one another support and friendship across the globe; finding that we were just a few keystrokes away.
