I am starting a new website..

The website will feature localized stories that's backed by aggregated data analysis.

Most local news pools are very similar. One could turn from a local ABC station to CW station news coverage and get similar types of story, sometimes by verbatim. I was recently dumb founded by the way the local news reporter becomes a pawn of a local city council person for her own political TV coverage, aka TV Whore.

Most of the leg work will be done by me at first but I would like to expand and attract different writers. All the writing must be backed by the extensive data. Data must able to hold the test of the time. And stories will be followed, meaning it will have a life span until the story has final. Of course, story of Social Security will always exist.

Most of the story will be backed by the economic principles and analyze its possible side effects, which are almost always ommited by the current news coverage whether it is national or local. However, I believe that local coverage is more important than the national coverage because this is where people can actually related.

I hope to educate people on How-Things-Work. America is lacking decent economics education. All the candidates of 2008 presidential candidates are economics illiterates. This is very shocking. Two of them are out-right Mercedes Marxists and one is a rino socialist. The country will be in a wrong hand either case.

I hope to have a very good coverage of Houston during year 2008 and 2009. Hopefully by 2010, I would like to reach other cities like Dallas, San Francisco, Chicago, and Washington DC. I am keeping up with the recent education reform in Washington DC.

Localized Aggregated Newscast.

I am putting about 40 hours of personal time into this project.
I will first build very raw newscast website and go from there.
