That's an interesting thing to think about a company... "they have avoided controversy"! hahahaha :D Their blog is <http://blog.nextnewnetworks.com/>. Lots of the things they've done, as well as the people they've hired are mentioned on their blog. I can't think of anything potentially controversial that they do, offhand. You pitch them a show, and if it looks good to them as far as fitting in with their business plan, they'll pick up your show. If it does well, fine. If not, it goes on hiatus. It seems to be a relatively simple operation. >From what I've seen over the last year and a half on this group, companies become controversial when they get greedy... When they're perceived as USING people more than they're HELPING them. In the case of NNN, they give podcasters money for creating content, they aid with website creation and super-distribution and they look for advertising opportunities / sponsors for their shows. All that stuff falls under the "helping" category, which makes them currently "less controversial" than others. :) -- Bill BillCammack.com > I applauded them once or twice int he past for doing a few things better than the others in > my opinion, such as trying to create strongly recognisable channels and consistent > content, and perhaps showing some signs of knowing how to entertain an audience rather > than be some weird failed web 2.0 disaster. > > I dont want to hear only about the bad side of companies, after somethings gone wrong > and people are expressing their dissapointment in public.
