Why they can never stop us! Jeff Cohen: "Victory for Independent Media"

Iraq Winter Soldier Hearings: Victory for Independent Media: "This time, I watched the dramatic testimony - often buttressed by photographic and video evidence — live online at http://www.ivaw.org/ . This time, I caught hours of coverage on Free Speech TV, the national satellite network that broadcast the panels of testimony and featured interviews with vets and their families in between panels. This time, I received regular video news feeds in my email inbox from The Real News Network. (The hearings were also televised on 20 public access channels from Fayetteville to Palo Alto, and in public gatherings from Florida to Alaska.) On my car radio, I listened to the proceedings live on the Pacifica network, which broadcast the hearings to affiliates nationwide - along with call-ins and email from listeners, including Iraq vets and soldiers not as critical of the war."
