Iran: New vs Antique Media

The Antique Media is not telling us much. The New Media is full of Tweets from Iran and Michael Totten analysis. Lindsay Stallones decries The Shameful Silence:
We are in trouble. If we don’t actively seek the news, it seems, we may find ourselves being amused to death, debating the importance of fans naming a poodle after Mike Huckabee or the spat between Sarah Palin and David Letterman, while fellow human beings who seek the freedoms these networks claim to promote are beaten in the streets for demanding that their votes be counted. The question has long ceased to be “who’s watching the watchers?” Now the question is “Who’s watching at all?”
