Review for Mainstream Media Project, Arcata, CA, USA
I was once discussing the dearth of subject matter expertise in the regular news--and complaining about the deafening sound of talking points, antagonism and generic spin that constitutes the majority of what's on the airwaves...A good friend of mine who has had great success in television retorted "what you nuclear war experts need are producers, bookers and agents. In Hollywood, I'll take a good booker over a beautiful face anyday." Well, Mainstream Media Project does exactly this set of tasks. It doggedly pursues the vital but unseen work of getting experts on the air and building the trusted relationships with local gatekeepers that make it possible--MM is unique and punches far above its weight by finding timely expertise and matching it to audiences. The public desperately needs more of this kind of discussion--a chance to hear those who can describe the complex "big picture" challenges facing our nation--and what we can do about it.

Expand into social media pronto! Also perhaps seek a way to break into the big national content distributors--if that is even possible...
