Given the intense interest in podcasting on the Digital Divide Network, this post about a USA Today article may be of interest to the members of this group. The post comes from the moderator of the MediaMentor discussion group on Yahoo Groups, George Lessard, who also regularly posts to the Net-Gold Yahoo Groups list as well. His posts and interests in native populations and in international journalism resources and issues may also be of great interest to folks on this list. I am certain that the posts he has shared regarding community radio will be of interest here, for example.

Rundle didn't need the BBC or any PR firm to help him reach an audience. He simply posted his show on the Internet.
