Welcome to Hard Power
This is Chuck Baginski, the editor of Hard Power. Our mission is to keep you informed about the real news - when people are fighting and dying, when billions are changing hands, and when political power is taken out of some hands and put into others. These are the stories that change lives and change history.
There is no such thing as a slow news day - only slow reporters. I believe the big story isn't always the breaking news, and it isn't always popular. Big stories started a long time ago, but you probably don't know enough about them yet. Our goal is to put the pieces of the big story together, to give perspective, and help you bring all the stories together into the world.
Today I begin the first step: trying to bring the content together on sites like current.com to build up the network of people who are interested in real news. If we get to the point where I have enough people engaged in the discussion, we can start hiring the veteran freelance journalists to cover these stories in more depth, and generate original journalism on the topics. Advertising ultimately will have to pay for that journalism, and I won't know how much revenue we can get until you jump into the dialogue.
So in this first step, I'll be linking you to the news out in the wilds of the internet, and providing my commentary. Let's get the discussion rolling.
