Before you move on to read the news links, as someone who tries to keep up with the current even in Iran as closely as possible, I'm starting to get a little concerned there is gradually less and less coverage of the Green Movement. At least from many of the main news sites, I see them focus more on the nuclear and Holocaust denial situations. I know they are very important matters, but it seems like the media is starting to lose interest and shifting their focus elsewhere. It might just be me, but that's how I'm beginning to feel as I search through news sites and Twitter. I wonder if anyone else feels the same? I am also starting to believe that Ahmadinejad's comments about the Holocaust, and the recently revealed nuclear facility were just to draw attention away from the atrocities committed on protesters. Sadly, that strategy is working, it seems.
However, I am glad to see there's still several people dedicated to reporting on the Green Movement. And I can't wait until the Green Brief is officially back. There was a post from NiteOwl on Twitter, so that's a little bit of hope it'll be back soon. I think it's going to feel a little weird for me, not spending a few hours a day looking through each and every article or video. I know I'm nowhere near as good as NiteOwl is, but I hope I'm at least a little bit of help in passing news around until the GB is back.
