If you’ve been around the internets very long, you’ll be familiar with the content producer’s dilemma. We produce, put the stuff on the web, everyone enjoys it and, uhh… every now and again, we have to ask you to kick in a few dollars so that we can keep doing the work.

Now it’s my turn.

I’ve been doing this for about six months now and while many days come and go without anything particularly noteworthy happening, every now and then I do have a moment where, I think, I’m doing really good movement work. Whether it’s the birther videos, or asking Republicans how they justify voting against the Al Franken anti-rape amendment, exposing David Vitter’s racism, or demonstrating that even after six months of debate, republicans still couldn’t tell me how many of their constituents were uninsured, or holding Andy Breitbart accountable, or chatting with Trent Franks and dredging up some ugly primordial race issues…

Well, the point I’m trying to make is that you have a reporter getting up every day, trekking to the Hill and generating primary reports from a perspective that is all but dead on the Hill – that of a progressive. My intent isn’t to pat myself on the back, and god knows there are a lot of progressive reporters in DC that are more talented than I am, but… None of them are doing what I’m doing in terms of staking out the Hill and conducting video interviews using questions derived from the populist progressive base.

Anyway, I’ve probably already overcooked this goose. If you like what you see here, please drop some coin in the paypal sidebar widget
