GoLeft.tv media center launched by GB's Papantonio
GoLeft.tv is not a website. It uses video content to bring news, commentary and entertainment in a medium that features interactive channels to cover news, consumer reports, interviews,original documentaries, politics, religion and more. "After Air America came into existence and we were interviewing all these national figures," Papantonio explains, "we found they all have their political opinions about what is happening in the world today. We are doing the work anyway, so we reduced it to this type of internet television. Broadband is overtaking cable, and mainstream media, and right now empirical data shows that about 40 percent of the public defines itself as moderate and progressive. This gives them something to go to." Papantonio details what he sees and market analysis shows is a major ground shift in media. "The existence of news media as we knew it is gone," he says. "There's been a huge shift to internet for news, and a constellation of things including blogs, indep endent papers, ipods and local community papers that people trust and go to." "We serve a sophisticated market, and they make sophisticated choices. In the last good data, survey responses indicate the mainstream media is not believed by 60 percent of the public." Goleft.tv is partially the result of archiving of previous Air America interviews and placing them on demand, but it's not just archives, according to Papantonio. "There's some of me and Bobby on Air America. We also have pages on documentaries, we have progressive religion. We have new segments every day as well as personal stories. This is not streaming, not text-driven, but television driven." GoLeft.tv is based out of Pensacola, and will also include consumer alerts and interviews by Consumer Advocate Michael Lynch. |
