"In 2010, the worldwide number of camera phones totaled more than a billion,"  according to Wiki sourcing The Economist. Potentially, that means  a thousand million Independent Journalists, all with a story to tell.

Ben Swann, Emmy award winning journalist  kicked off the Season opener for Occupy Interview, July 17.
“What I have  done is stepped out in response to what millions of Americans from the Tea Party  and Occupy movements, from independents to the fast growing Liberty movement  have been crying out for...” Swann said in a recent New American interview.

Ben will discuss his Liberty Is Rising Truth in Media" project. Tune in to hear a  one-hour "seminar" on what makes good Independent Journalism.  According to  this article "...Missouri  School of Journalism faculty members representing digital, print, magazine,  radio and television perspectives share their views on what constitutes good  reporting in today's multi-platform news environment"
