What is RootsWIre?

Submitted by Steve Hanson on Thu, 06/26/2008 - 09:39.

RootsWire is an ongoing experiment in grassroots journalism. Our plan is to pull together the best in placeblogging and progressive political news from grassroots sites around the country, and to present them in one place.

We are starting by covering the 2008 Democratic Convention in Denver. Our plans are then to expand to cover Wisconsin, where we are based, and from there to spread out throughout the US.
