keep up with what's new and what's next
Follow along with iReport staffers as we build a new kind of news site.
There's an interesting conversation happening on a story called " Fire in Highlands of Scotland." When it was first uploaded, it scored high ratings, but pretty soon after the iReport.com community used the comments area to call attention to the fact that it may not be what it's described to be. It's a good example of how the comments can work on a story to add additional info, ask more questions and help get to the bottom of what really happened. Hats off to the folks who spotted it and told the rest of us.

Why was I removed from the Superstars page? :O( Also, is there a
contact link somewhere that I'm overlooking... so we can contact
moderators if we have a problem?

I feel the need to express concerns about Hilary Clintons
sincerity. The NOVA area has been overwhelmed with what to do about
the growing latino community. Several weeks ago Hilary was in
manassas and supported the community there on their resolutions to
basically controll the latino community population and agreed to
whatever remedies were thought of and suggested they be raised to a
federal level. Now this week in manassas random searches have
begun, basic racial profiling but legally. Now I see her in Texas
trying to woo the latino community which poses a question. Does the
community there know her stance in manassas?
I would like for CNN to show her in manassas, show manassas today as people are being racially profiled and then show her amongst the latinos in Texas. | |

Campbell Brown, when you interviewed Jim Downey from Saturday Night
Live and he admitted that he prefers H. Clinton to the other
candidates, for whatever his reasons, do you think the media is
being manipulated by the Clintons? Since H. Clinton accused the
press of letting Obama get away with a free ride, the press appears
to be scared to say anything in Obama's favor.
Anderson Cooper, I think it was, stated that there was a story on Michelle Obama that would be aired yesterday. He stated that showing the piece wasn't showing favoritism toward Obama. However, it was not aired that I have been able to tell. I have looked constantly. I also looked on the web and I haven't seen it. Is Cnn scared of what the Clinton's will say if they show it? I hope that I am wrong. I have been waiting to see the piece. | |

I suppose that America has forgotten that former President Jimmy
Carter attended a church that did not admit Black people. Jimmy
Carter has and continues to be a fair and honest person and I never
held his racist church against him. I think we need to give Obama's
minister a rest.

Have anyone notice lately, thatObama is still a plagiarizer and to
use his rival's husband's President Clinton's farewell speech is
just disgusting. I don't know why the press haven't call him down
on that one.
http://www.let.rug.nl/~usa/P/bc42/speeches/farewell.htm This is Bill Clinton from his 2000 Farewell Address: "Third, we must remember that America cannot lead in the world unless here at home we weave the threads of our coat of many colors into the fabric of one America. As we become ever more diverse, we must work harder to unite around our common values and our common humanity. We must work harder to overcome our differences, in our hearts and in our laws. We must treat all our people with fairness and dignity, regardless of their race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation, and regardless of when they arrived in our country-always moving toward the more perfect Union of our Founders' dreams." Exerpt from Obamas March 18 2008 speech on racism that he supposedly wrote himself: "We must remember that America cannot lead in the world unless here at home we weave the threads of our coat of many colors into the fabric of one America. As we become ever more diverse, we must work harder to unite around our common values and our common humanity. We must work harder to overcome our differences, in our hearts and in our laws. We must treat all our people with fairness and dignity, regardless of their race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation, and regardless of when they arrived in our country-always moving toward the more perfect Union of our Founders' dreams." |
