In this fast paced world of constantly evolving technology people have found a new more efficient way of receiving their news every day. Growing up, I always remember going outside to the driveway in order to get the paper for my Father, who would browse while sipping his coffee every morning. This morning routine that many American’s shared has now been replaced with online web forums and communities that pool together information and news from all over the planet and consolidate it for people to easily find and enrich themselves. This is the age of technology and now transparency. With the US continuously inching toward a police state and the lack of trust in our own elected officials, American’s are just now understanding and reaping the benefits of a all inclusive, non-bias news source. The Huffington Post is one of these online communities that was created in 2005 in order to provide a non bias information outlet with stories from all around the world. In a world were corporations with special interests control the flow of information, Huffington Post and other sites like Wikileaks or Reddit have successfully gained national attention and power just by allowing the free flow of information. We need these fearless online communities to continue their vigilance and transparency seeking in order to protect us and inform us against the secretive actions of the elite pulling the strings. In order to keep government and corporate excess and power under control, it is absolutely necessary that we continue down the path of transparency and allow the population of the world to continue to use new technology in order to share information and not allow greed to consume our government’s interests and goals.

Support transparency: Get involved and get loud. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/09/wikileaks-assange-transparency_n_820348.html
