Media info blockade broken by live NYC protest stream site

15 Oct
Mainstream media have been somewhat reluctant and slow at reporting the ongoing corporate resistance and civil unrest growing and growing in the Big Apple.

However, day after day, the world has been able to watch Occupy Wall Street in action through Global Revolution TV – a live web stream documenting the events on the ground.

Vlad Teichberg, co-founder of Global Revolution TV:

"It’s not about one political party or this or that. It’s actually creating a platform to have this debate without it being manipulated by the powers that be". 

"I saw unlimited greed combined with unethical hierarchy system, combined with this tool, creates the biggest bomb the world has ever seen. It sunk the world economy".

"We also teach people how to shoot video, immediately edit it and how to make it go viral. And the whole idea is that you’re creating an instantaneous record and a witness".

"We’re going to have a team of people staying in contact with all the other squares and figuring out what’s happening there and taking their streams and putting them on the Global Revolution channel, so this is sort of a model for a replacement of CNN".

"It’s a worldwide movement. These principals of equality are going to redefine everything. Because we’re basically creating the new United Nations except it’s not the United Nations it’s the United People".

"It’s not about one political party or this or that. It’s actually creating a platform to have this debate without it being manipulated by the powers that be", Vlad Teichberg, co-founder of Global Revolution TV says. 

Five years ago, Vlad Teichberg was a derivatives trader on Wall Street. Today, the 39-year-old is among those camped out in Zuccotti Park protesting against the financial institutions he once worked for. 

"I saw unlimited greed combined with unethical hierarchy system, combined with this tool, creates the biggest bomb the world has ever seen. It sunk the world economy", he said. 

Teichberg co-founded and launched Global TV four weeks ago when the occupation movement began in New York. 

"We also teach people how to shoot video, immediately edit it and how to make it go viral. And the whole idea is that you’re creating an instantaneous record and a witness", he said. 

Now that the Wall Street movement has exploded worldwide, Global Revolution TV will be broadcasting live streams from more than 70 countries and 600 cities
.
"We’re going to have a team of people staying in contact with all the other squares and figuring out what’s happening there and taking their streams and putting them on the Global Revolution channel. So this is sort of a model for a replacement of CNN", Vlad said. 

Techberg also says that mainstream media outlets will be unable to marginalize or spin the peaceful uprising as people from all over the world take to the streets demanding elected leaders begin working for the majority instead of the financial elite. "It’s a worldwide movement. These principals of equality are going to redefine everything. Because we’re basically creating the new United Nations, except it’s not the United Nations it’s the United People", Vlad said.
