You should know that a great deal of the organization of and independent
coverage of the protests at the G8 summit and other globalization conferences is
due to the work of the Independent Media Center:
http://www.indymedia.org/
You can publish news articles on indymedia's site here:
http://www.indymedia.org/publish.php3
Note that what you publish must be actual news, not comments. Posts that don't
get approved are not actually removed, just placed in a "hidden" section, I
suppose like they got modded down.
I'd like to suggest someone write up some news about the DMCA and Dmitry and
submit it. I dropped in the Chicago protest packet but I don't think that's
quite what they want to run, they want actual news articles.
Note that you can also submit media - sound files, images, and video. So once
the protests happen, submit pictures. Any speeches made, or newsworthy action
caught on camera or tape, submit it.
