Independence.

When I found out Jeff Cohen was attending class on Thursday to talk about independent media I really wasn't sure what to expect... Of course I have been exposed to many different sources of independent media, but I never really found a source that I went to to get my information from (I usually stick to the media giants like CNN, ABC, and NBC).   But after listening to his lecture I was fairly surprised... and intrigued.  So intrigued in fact, that I spent some time online research sites such as crooksandliars.com and The Huffington Post and found them to be just as viable, if not more, than traditional news sources. I thought Professor Cohen's presentation was fantastic and I hope more people will turn to independent media to get their information.
