Many Americans are going to view this as a variation of Indymedia. I wish them well, but I am not optimistic about the general reception of this feature. You seem to be forgetting that many American are not fans of Al Jazeera TV which also has a website. Reuters will be compared with Al Jaz. Jeff, there has been some kind of buzz tonight in the blogworld about a photog named Bilal Hussein. On Michelle Malkin and others. Speculating that he is in custody for collaborating with the terrorists in Iraq. It's just gossip at this point without offical confirmation. I am concerned that some bloggers may cross the line from speculation to slander. You may want to look into this. I believe he is a stringer with AP.
