Congrats to the Women Bloggers!!

Vivian Paige posted a list she found of over 100 women political bloggers. Virginia was well represented with gotv, catsmeow commentary, and our very own Mosquito Blog joining Vivian on the list. These were the bloggers that the list compiler found herself.

The list has now grown to over 200 with others sending in links to the site now....It will be interesting to see how big the list grows. We are happy that we were easily found and didn't have to send a link into the list.

It's interesting that the compiler figured out the sex of the Mosquito....but I guess the cat's out of the bag now. We also have Star posting here and our main man Mac McKinney.

Alma Kessling will soon be joining us as soon as I get her the information so she can start posting her stuff. We anticipate that Alma is going to be a very exciting addition for us. She has a lot of insight on local happenings in Hampton Roads as well as the national scene.

From those of us at Mosquito Blog....We hope everyone is doing okay out there. Buzz...Buzz....

Television for those who give a crap....

Wake Up Hampton Roads is a great source of independent journalism covering local stories in the Hampton Roads Region. At this point in time, the star, executive producer, and writer are all one person, Alma Kessling. Already, Alma is already challenging the local TV news broadcast in the quality and content departments.

Alma has long been active in local politics and her focus is where she lives....Norfolk, Va. Alma is also an active member of Hampton Roads Independent Media Coalition. there are plans in the works to expand the "focus" on stories in other cities.

Finally, a news program that is willing to concentrate on something more than the latest murder, robbery, car accident, and actually "report" on what our elected representatives are doing and who they are doing it with........We need to know what bills are coming up and how they impact our lives....you better believe the corporate elites are on top of this information all the time...and if it favors a corporate elite...well your wallet just got skinnier...

So check out Wake Up Hampton Roads.com....and then ask yourself why doesn't Cox TV allow this program on the "local" public channel that is supposed to be there for use by the community for community news.
