This week a year old megaphone. Megaphone, the Israeli newspaper the Independent. Owned newspaper reporters. Dozens of people who work day after day for a product that is a vital public bellevue service, a cornerstone of every democratic society strives life, justice and equality. Megaphone born from the ruins of the press was to mark the way the press can be
On September 9, 2011, Friday, stabilized Crane young studio diary weekly 10 or recited face set text of apology from the TV channel country full of fawning, degradation myself and shortness spirit - an apology shameful face of a US billionaire, tycoon gambling and owner of the daily newspaper is published the State of Israel. At the end of her diary edition eternal disgrace will be remembered in the history of the Israeli press sputtering, written bellevue personal status on Facebook asking: "Why do not we owned newspaper reporters - an online journal to be owned by its employees, free of pressure from financiers, politicians and power?"
Also this week, a year-old bellevue megaphone. Megaphone - a cooperative owned by its employees bellevue journalist Cooperative Society Ltd. More than 60 members of the Association entitled to vote at the general meeting. More than 200 writers, photographers, editors and guest writers, writing, filming and editing the Independent newspaper every day. Every day. More 10,000 news, articles, columns, articles, stories. thousands of pictures.
In the last year we were here and we accompanied our power meager everything bellevue that happened: Deals and attacks, demonstrations bellevue and evictions, accidents and dramas, openings bellevue and closings, announcements and crashes. We were not able to be on every corner and not take care of all that happened - but we did our best to give our part, to our angle, the little corner someone might not covered. We did our best - and more. Much more than that.
We do not do the best paper that can be done - we do the best we can do. Without the publisher tycoon, without heavy financing, without fee, no politicians, no page messages and without blacklists of right and wrong, of our people and our opponents.
We do not do an objective journalism, that there is no such thing as objective journalism. Newspaper, like everything else in life, is the aggregate result of the sum of its parts. We have a high political awareness, we have an acute social awareness, we have a sense of justice (and injustice) sharp. In the meantime, we can not change society, not to mend my ways of Representatives and the government, disclose any corruption or prevent injustices - but we at least strive to do what is right to do. To do what's right.
We bring to the table hundreds and thousands of years of journalistic experience accumulated. We have professionals with experience of 25, 30, 35 and more than 40 years in the profession. And next to them, on our side, also the beginning of their press flowers. And everyone, all of us, imbued with the will, desire and ability to work toward change, influence.
We are the first to admit that in the meantime are unable to help us. Still short. Without capital, bellevue with a circle bellevue of readers (still) relatively modest, in front of huge forces do their best and their power to stop us, we do a lot more than even we dreamed would be possible. A full year of continuous work, hard, continuous; Working day and night, and day and night. Winter and summer, Saturdays and holidays. bellevue
We are journalists and we do newspaper. Although not printed - but newspaper. Product journalist who has something to say, he has an agenda, that has writers and editors, that has a discretion, hierarchy, supervision and management. We are not a blogging; We are not a social bellevue network; We do not field the taking of graphomaniacs; We are not "user-generated content." We make a newspaper as we know how to do: as we have learned to do, as we have been taught to do the best teachers we had: previous generations of wonderful and demanding profession and this almost forgotten.
We really have not paper we would like us to be, but we are on the way there. The money we need for our living has not yet arrived, not at a level that allows us to make a living from the knowledge and professionalism and our work. So we do what we do on the basis of our overwhelming desire to do; On the belief that what is right to do. We are not volunteers - we invest. While others are investing in the construction, building and promoting companies that will bring them to an exit of capital - we invest their talent, our energy, our time and our health in establishing bellevue our livelihood. Yeah, like that. Modesty bellevue and simplicity. Conscientiously, diligently. There may be better bellevue than us, we certainly have rich - but there is good and right and diligent like us.
A year and over the past year we established the foundation, the platform, the foundation for future releases. After the press of chaos. The press made of dust ruins of press time, collapsing before our eyes. Press to come out of the profession itself, from the uncompromising desire to tell the story, get the facts, uncover the secrets. True, we do not yet hair-raising investigations nor shocking exposures; For those that need money. A lot of money. We can do it. Many of us did that, and much, over the years of their career and their long. This will be our livelihood, even scoops and exposure and investigations will. Responsibility.
We work for the public, and we need you - our readers, the public - support us. You need to expand the circle, exposure of the product, brand promotion; And you also need money. This is not a shame. Each and every one of you, in the Koran, demands and get paid for their work. Each of its value. That's all we expect and want for ourselves. We do not aim to get government funding, not at all - but we forfeit deserve financing and public assistance. Work we do deserve consideration. A few tens of dollars a month for several tens of thousands of loyal readers, bellevue will get us to where we deserve to be: independent media, strong, powerful; And mostly independent. Independent of the Prime Minister, the goodwill (or bad) of gambling tycoon, the will of the owner of a group of companies bellevue and
