    • ]]>     I had mentioned before that Kate Milberry, Steve Anderson and Rodger Levesque are good friends of mine, and you all know that I’m always a sucker for helping my friends, so when they mentioned they were doing the “Where is the Money in Media?” event, I thought I should help out. I had already written a blog post about the event, but since they are also promoting media democracy and in the spirit of contributing to the larger community, I decided to further help them by providing a digital record of the talk with a liveblog.
