Hi again; it’s Greg Piper from The Smoking Room, doing my part to steal Joe’s audience help a blogger out (or “blogga,” if you’re down with that).
Less than a month after Iraq’s election, Iraqi kids are talking about concepts like “freedom, democracy, [and] respecting others’ opinion” as part of a “children’s parliament” project started last August. They made a few requirements for the project, and this is my favorite: “4-helping them start their own magazine.” Laugh at their Woodwardian imprinting if you must, but it’s much classier than “Kidz Newz.”
I’m a tech journalist who’s making a TV show about a college newspaper.
