On Monday, a new citizen's media project called TakeBacktheNews.com, will mark its debut, Micro Persuasion has learned. You can kick the tires today over here. TakeBackTheNews.com is a grassroots effort enabling news consumers to determine for themselves which stories and topics are worthy of attention, to share that news with others and to have a say in specific coverage and news in general.
According to their "about" page, the site's developers feel that all they need to do is provide intelligent, well-informed individuals the tools they need to share what they know as they come to know it.
This is one of dozens of citizen's media sites that have been springing up. It will be interesting to watch which of these will thrive and which will die. Ahh, the beauty of Darwinism.
