ATLANTA, GEORGIA – Kurt Wallace, formerly of Break the Matrix, has undertaken a new project to find the best pro-liberty/freedom movement articles and videos from around the new-media blogosphere. Kurt is seeking to expand upon the niche originally fostered by Matt Drudge of ‘The Drudge Report’ only obviously biased towards the expansion of freedom and a restoration of the Constitution.
Mr. Wallace feels that even in the environment of micro-blogging sites such as Twitter as well as the larger blogosphere itself, there is still a role for media aggregation. The idea first occurred to him after he would spend hours scouring the old-media news sites and blogosphere in preperation for his radio show. Thus last week the ‘Liberty Pulse’ officially went live with a full bevy of pro-liberty news. Currently the site is not monetized, but plans to offer advertising sometime in the near future.

“Currently the site is not monetized,….”
By golly, I hope not. The word should be “funded.” Monetizing means to turn into money. You know, like thin air and the FED or the national debt and the FED.
Otherwise a great idea. As a host on Revolution Broadcasting, I know how hard it is to keep abreast of the news. It would be nice to have a service such as Wallace suggests, so we can concentrate more on producing our shows.
But more than that, if Amy Goodman & Co. can come up w. funding for “Democracy Now, Free Speech Network,” you would think the freedom movement could do the same.

“Monetized” in blogger parlance is merely the term used to describe a site which has advertising intermingled with content.
However, you point is well taken.
As it relates to the liberty movement coming up with a network comparable to “Democracy Now”, ’tis an absolute shame in my mind how “Break the Matrix” imploded at the beginning of this year.
Nevertheless, Gary Franchi over at Restore the Republic is working his tail off with the “Reality Report” etc.
