- I want to second the endorsement of Lines in the Sand. We showed it at MIT
- shortly after its release and provoked a great discussion. The video is made
- by Deep Dish Television and Paper Tiger, who have done outstanding work in
- the area of local access television activism. It is in fact part of a series
- of 6-8 videos archiving the collective's coverage of the Gulf War. All of the
- ones I have seen from that series have been outstanding. The success of
- cable access activists is one of the few bits of good news to emerge from the
- media coverage of the Gulf War.
