Current.Com

I've fallen in love with the news channel and website called Current. It's a new kind of news network that gives the task of producing information and news to the viewers. So the viewers are ones who create the content posted on the web and aired on TV. Not only are the stories covering current news worthy events, but people also do what I see as mini documentaries that showcase people's lives in other parts of the country/world and various cultural events. For example, I learned just a few nights ago about a police officer in NYC who decided to take his love for the game of chess and use it to positively teach the rules of life to troubled inner city kids who seem stuck on making bad decisions. His main point with chess and with life is that every move you make affects the rest of the game/life, so think wisely about where you decide to move. Another topic I watched was an investigation into an all male club in London where men get together to eat biscuits, drink beer, and knit - interesting.

Take a look sometime!
