Amazing…
This is a terrific news tool.
When you see products like this one, you see the future.
And the same time you realize how lazy and slow the traditional quality newspapers are.
Issues like Iraq deserve efforts like this one, and it is a shame that the hole “Iraq war” is presented, day by day, as a policy-makers issue.
The politicians in power or in the opposition are the only ones to speak.
And they are the only ones that the traditional media cover.
Then you read some stories from The New York Times, The New Yorker or The Independent in London and you realize that the problems are bigger and more complex.
What Iraqslogger shows in a dramatic way is how far you can go with online news.
We need more web sites like this one.
Many more:
What about the IRA?
What about ETA?
What about AIDS?
What about North Korea?
There are so many hot issues and dramatic conflicts that the new media landscape looks like a no-limits world for real journalism.
Because what you see here is just that: Journalism 101.
What a lesson for all of us in this profession that today spends so much time in soul-searching discussions.
When you see this you recover your faith in this business.
Well done, Iraqslogger!
