RE: [backstage] Fwd: [IP] C-Span Puts Full Archives on the Web
You guys have seen this site, haven't you? http://news.bbc.co.uk/democracylive/ You can search by transcript (even in welsh), it has all the local parliament channels, it archives everything that they recorded AFAIK, plus some old stuff they've added. Hopefully this goes at least part of the way towards meeting your needs... admittedly only for official parliament business, not for press conferences, doorstep interviews etc. Brendan.

IMHO It would be a great service to the public if every single utterance that was made could be found and replayed, and possibly transferred to YouTube. Add to that a little bit of an index on the subtitles output of the News Channel and Bingo - real accountability. As I presume that the coverage will include lots of news conferences and PR events too, it would be great to hold these candidates to what they say during the election to the process afterwards, in particular if there is no party with a seat majority.
