To quote Noam Chomsky;
In order for democracy to be "democratic," the media has to fulfill two functions: - The Media must report the news fairly, completely, and
without bias.
- The Media must function as a watchdog for the public against abuse of power.
How do you plan to make sure the ATSNN is kept at both of those
levels? What are the challenges to keeping those functions alive and well on ATSNN?
How do you plan to get ATSNN out to a wider audiance? Do you wish to see ATSNN stick as it is now, with people reporting stories they see on Yahoo!,
MSN, etc or move to ATSNN having its own journalism team? [Not just Op/Ed's] If the second what ideas do you have to help boost this effort?

People may place sources from non-traditional source (of course the run the risk of getting "NO:SOURCE") for those articles from any source.
For members who have a good, long site track on ATSNN, there is always the option of writinng ATNN Exlusives that dont' really require any mainstram
source per se, just some data to corroboarate the story. Hoepfully we'll be able get more volunteers to author pieces liek this it the
coming future.

Amazing results from the election -- Mayet and I tied, so there'll be a runoff election.
To all my supporters, thank you and please make sure you stay with me in the runoff. To all of subz's supporters, I'd like to answer any questions
you have of me in hopes to garner your vote. Let me know!
