FAIRNESS & ACCURACY IN REPORTING
Challenging media bias since 1986.
FAIR is the national progressive media watchdog group, challenging corporate media bias, spin and misinformation.
Peter Hart was the activist director of FAIR for 15 years, as well as the co-host of FAIR's radio show CounterSpin. He is now the senior field communications officer for Food & Water Watch.
FAIR is the national progressive media watchdog group, challenging corporate media bias, spin and misinformation. We work to invigorate the First Amendment by advocating for greater diversity in the press and by scrutinizing media practices that marginalize public interest, minority and dissenting viewpoints. We expose neglected news stories and defend working journalists when they are muzzled. As a progressive group, we believe that structural reform is ultimately needed to break up the dominant media conglomerates, establish independent public broadcasting and promote strong non-profit sources of information.

If I may toss some tiny little brickbats through your new window:
First, lose the arrow hiding the mouth. If you can’t get rid of the arrow, move the mouth.
Second, Peter Hart and Steve Rendall have fine speaking voices, but their talking heads get a bit tedious. How about a medium shot of several people at a desk, or more voice-overs, or some split-screen mugging à la John Stewart? You could also have guest experts respond to the latest lies strewn along the campaign trail.
Finally, add a printout to the commentary. The latest FAIR TV was devastating, and the dearth of comments on it here suggest that a lot of FAIR fans don’t sit through visuals much.
