I received this E-mail today from IWT


"Be the first to see two exciting new videos hitting our web site today. IWTnews.com is proud to present exclusive video interviews with author and journalist Naomi Klein, and Executive Director of Africa Action, Salih Booker. You can watch now at:

Naomi shares her thoughts on TV news coverage of Iraq, and explains how Independent World Television can provide a badly needed "amplifying effect" for the world's best print and online journalists. Salih speaks out on "blind spots" in coverage of issues like poverty and AIDS in Africa, and how IWT can do better. Interviews like these are the voices and analysis you'll find on IWTnews.

I'm also writing to ask for your help in doubling the size of our online community by September. One of the questions I hear most often is, "What's the #1 thing I can do to help the network right now?" The best answer--in addition to considering a small contribution--is inviting your friends, family, and coworkers to join our email list:

http://www.IWTnews.com/join

You can help us meet our September goal by forwarding the message below to five friends right now and encouraging them to sign up.

Why is growing our list so important to IWT right now?

1) Building an online movement is the key to building IWT. Email subscribers are the backbone of our online community. It's the communications lifeline that connects our international supporters.


2) A growing list is proof of widespread support. Contributions and email sign-ups prove to our potential carriers, regulators, funders, and new supporters that there really is widespread international support for Independent World Television.

So, tell the world you want to know. Tell the world you have a right to know. Help us build independent world television! Help us double our list by September.

Thanks again for your outstanding help and input,


Paul Jay
Chair, Independent World Television

Dear friend,

Thought you might be interested in this exciting new project called Independent World Television -- www.IWTnews.com


Their plan is to create the world's first global independent news channel -- a non-profit, international network with no funding from governments, corporations or advertising. Check out the short video on the homepage.

The only way this will become a reality is if we all sign-up to join their global movement. We need to show potential carriers, regulators, funders, and new supporters that there really is widespread international support for Independent World Television.

I just joined their email list and hope you will too:
