Outline of things to Cover

Some quick thoughts about things we might include in our 'paper'

Blogs (analyze, write, compare chile, china) about the earthquake
Analysis and comparison between Fox and MSNBC (Media Matters
Also: when coverage started, and when it went away (how many minutes per day? - change in nature of coverage - disaster coverage, relief efforts, celebrities, children, curruption, feel good stories, etc - how were these stories linked to US interest (Tsunami in Hawaii - Chile Quake)(Earthquake Preparedness stories in California)(Americans helping others, as in the Darfur stories - or the Red Campaign - re easier than political involvement)
Think Global, Act Local
Explore power of local - in global: primary source of information? technology? new media and social networks? how does it inform the future?
Create pod-cast (with still photos of Bklyn)
Record music (any original songs written?)
