Help a reporter out - Doug Henwood looking to talk to anarchists about Bitcoin

[mistress_magpie]

Hi all, a reporter friend is working on a story about Bitcoin and is interested in hearing perspectives from anarchists about it.  He is thoughtful and open minded about bitcoin so i agreed to pass his details on.

His request is below:

Hello Bitcoin Talk,

I'm working on a story about bitcoin for The Nation magazine, where I'm a contributing editor. I'm interested in political angles on it, along with the financial, and would be interested in hearing from anarchists who like (or dislike, for that matter) BTC.

Please email me at dhenwood@panix.com.

Doug Henwood

I am curious: what is The Nation's political bias in general, based on their own words?

The nation is a left leaning publication. I've been working with this reporter so he has a clear and accurate view of bitcoin - this is an oopportunity for btc to reach a currently untapped audience.

He should do a hmm "reversed AMA?" on Reddit/bitcoin so everyone can see the interview in real time. Everybody has a bias, from left to right. In this case when his article will be "printed" the whole world would be able to do a back and forth between the original "blockchain" and his article.

He should avoid doing another "Newsweak" with the bitcoin community and think like the blockchain: wide open. My free advice.
