As the week has passed and we have and numerous activities to follow I continue to watch how the new media types cove the stories. Passing us as of yesterday is the New Hampshire Primaries which was touted by some as the most important event in political circles since 1992.
It is amazing to think that NewTeeVee.com has totally missed the boat on the scoops that have been coming out of New Hampshire. The stories told by people on theUpTake and by people like Steve Garfield. In the past week they have posted one politically "inspired" video, the Obama Girl. What does this say about the generation. Twitter and Seesmic have been non-stop politics and we can't get one "real" story on the political happenings in the nation. There is a lot of good UGC on the web and they can't show one.
Maybe if a candidate made a video that would rate. More press for them........

Hey Jeff, appreciate the feedback. Jackson is working on a story about the TheUpTake -- we'll try to get it out the door faster!

Ask and ye shall receive Mr. Persch -- I had been waiting to talk to people who were necessarily very busy doing the coverage!
