All video politics, all the time

Thanks to the internet there is an Amazonian volume of video material easily available to anyone with a computer and a high-speed connection.

One subject being thoroughly covered in this way is the upcoming US Congressional election. This time around you can see clips of cable and broadcast news and interviews, partisan advertising, and low-cost on-the-street journalism. It certainly adds a vital dimension to text reporting.

And without commercials!

For an example, see Crooks and Liars, which is high on video content.
