Expressing Your Opinions in Video

This very much falls in the category of Voltaire (France 1770), "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"

And to say it 'in video', the lingua franca of the 21st Century.

The video below was posted by Paul Huebl, a long-time fan and follower of our work.

Here's his bio as he posts it:

Paul Huebl has spent four decades as a Chicago cop and operating a private investigative agency in Arizona and California. Additionally he was drafted by local television news to work as an investigative news producer. He's done freelance work for most major networks and also German TV news. He operates a blog at www.crimefilenews.com. Paul has also become a camera drone pilot shooting video from above.

I most certainly do not want to get into a poliical discusion here - that's not our mandate and this is not the place.  However, we are very big fans of both The First Amendment and of using video to express your opinions to the world.

Paul shot this in his 'apartment studio', using a green screen. 

Agree with him or not, you have to be impressed that a retired Chicago city cop has embraced video so well.

Character-driven journalism is not new to newspapers, though it once was. It was once called The New Journalism in the 1960s — see Truman Capote or Tom Wolfe. Today it is industry standard. Why not take the Sopranos or Breaking Bad formula and marry it to TV journalism? (How many interviews have you seen in The Sopranos? How many Man on the Street soundbites have you seen in Breaking Bad?)


In a recent study by The Reuters Institute, 40% of Americans no longer watch or read the news at all. They find it too depressing. All doom and gloom.


There is a great deal of concern, well placed, that few people under the age of 30 watch TV news. Viewership of TV news in general has fallen off, so naturally, TV executives across the boards are searching for a solution. How to appeal to a demographic that spends most of their time on social media?
