Out of the ashes of counterSpin
There is life after the CBC....
Just received this e-mail....
Dear Friend of counterSpin,
As you know, counterSpin has been off the air a little over a year now, but
I'm pleased to share with you some exciting news.
The hard-hitting coverage, independent analysis, and real debate you came to
expect from counterSpin is about to take on a whole new form -- as the
world's first global independent news network.
The project is called Independent World Television. We just launched our
brand new web site at:
http://click.iwtnews.com/t?ctl=F02D13:3D41813
The plan is to create a truly independent news channel - a non-profit,
international network with no funding from governments, corporations or
advertising.
Our new site includes a short video outlining our vision and plan, and an
interactive poll for you to tell us what you think about the network. I'd be
honoured if you'd take a few moments to visit and take part, and if you'd
forward this message to friends and family.

As a former counterSpin viewer, I know you share our belief in the
importance of quality news and debate to democracy. Please help us make
Independent World Television a success!
Sincerely,
Paul Jay
Creator & Executive Producer, CBC Newsworld's counterSpin
Chair, Independent World Television
