Reflections on the Growing Energy of Rochester IndyMedia

Why it's incredibly exciting to be involved with RIMC. How you can become a part of it, and why you should.

From my weblog....



It takes talent and it takes commitment to do what needs to be done, and everyone who works for RIMC is a volunteer with other obligations to meet. To be sure, there is a great deal that needs improvement. But instead of saying "you should have covered this or that," or "why don't you do this or that," or "why did you do this or that," volunteer your own talents and time. You can't make Gannett or CBS or NBC or ABC or Fox do a better job of covering local news, but YOU CAN come down to RIMC and help US do a better job.

Don't say "I don't know how," because there is plenty of talent available to teach you if you don't already have the skills. And of course, no matter what your skills are, there is always something to learn.
