16. Exactly
It's beyond me why so many liberals still don't get what Current is all about.

The system works this way:

You guys pick a subject and make a pod. Upload it and other people vote for it if they like it.
If it gets enough greenlights it goes to TV and you get paid. If not you can do anything you want with it after 3 months.

The details of the greenlight system have not been yet clarified because the community is not big enough and Current already had videos in the months before the lauch of their website.
But what I said is the essence of it. Which means that it will be a political network exactly as much the pod creators and the viewers will make it one. Once the community is big enough Gore or the others at Current will not have control over the programming. The pod producers and the viewers will.

BTW, One Day in Camp Casey is a horrible shot. Poor camera control, poor sound and everything. It's not ready for TV.
Liberal citizen reporters should learn something from this guy:

http://www.current.tv/studio/media/226663
http://www.current.tv/studio/media/201490

He is a pro-war pro-Bush Republican and he knows something about how to shoot high quality, ready-for-TV reports -- even though he is an amateur.

Or for that matter, you can learn from this producer:

http://www.current.tv/studio/people/vrassociates

He has the highest rated video, currently.
Guess why?
