According to the last 30 years of alumni circles of Entrepreneurial Revolution and Death of Distance Open Source networking: one of the greatest preneurial challenges people everywhere face involves taking back enough hi-trust public briadcasting media to collaborate with web/net media. Both need each other's greatest ethicas, and one offers deep interactive contextual lines of inquiry while the other provides an urgency of scale so that people's debate jam together in one virtual community, so that connections can be searched and progress made from concept to pilot project to replication by open source and through zero degress of separation information that is life critical to te wother side of the world.

We at open schools & media-trust villages such as FoL & Bethesda are therefore accutely interested in New York's fair and any other similar movements you can log up for us. Here's an extract of Fair.org's gravitational pull

What's Wrong With the News?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Independent, aggressive and critical media are essential to an informed democracy. But mainstream media are increasingly cozy with the economic and political powers they should be watchdogging. Mergers in the news industry have accelerated, further limiting the spectrum of viewpoints that have access to mass media. With U.S. media outlets overwhelmingly owned by for-profit conglomerates and supported by corporate advertisers, independent journalism is compromised.

Ultimately, FAIR believes that structural reform is needed to break up the dominant media conglomerates, establish independent public broadcasting, and promote strong, non-profit alternative sources of information.

Incidentally, over at St Paul, public media's marketwatch is surveying what are the big stories of whether future sustainability will be won or lost? Someone might drop by and gently explian that media is one of the sectors that will make or breat sustainability of the globe which all the world's people share as well as commune round.

Worldwide, club of city supports collaboration and networkers: to pose serious questions, notably on future curves that seem to be trending down in many places and communities. How do all peoples and media 1 2 3 turnround such examples as:
  • Healthcare – ever increasing costs
  • Children – increased family strain, lost safety of community
  • Professionals- loss of Hippocratic oath, ever more bureaucratic
  • Water – Clean water is getting scarcer
  • Transport – getting slower
  • National Government – Increasingly powering over instead of facilitating what people need next Mass media – dumbing down, loss of social space and transparent debates
  • Food chain – cost of good for you food going up
  • Nations Cultures- love of each other’s diversity going down
  • Pensions (investment in sustainable growth) – going down
  • Adult confidence in making a difference with lifelong learning potentials – seems to be going down
  • Insurance – cost going up, learnings across biggest tragedies seem increasingly blocked
  • Underclass – compounding underclass- their loss of hope in life and mutual risks to all of us in a hi-connected world
  • NGOs/Charity – Global*Local infrastructure further removed from depth of grassroots needs in crisis or sustainability turnround challenges
    We are interested in any city network that either recognises any of these as a problem which it wants to question or has some answers they are happy to share with the world
