Hello,
My name is Carl Settles Jr. Founder and Executive Director of the Media Diversity Council. Just over year ago, I started the council to develop a sustainable approach to media diversity.
I started this blog to provide insight into my motivations for the council and a less formal way to keep friends and family informed about what I'm doing. I hope that you'll enjoy and feel free to reach out to me.

This is a good interview. %0 Cent is not what you'd expect. Very discerning and intellectual about his art and business.

Internet May Distract Teens From Learning To Drive : NPR

text sizeAAA
November 25, 2009 from KPBS

For teenagers, a driver's license has traditionally been a passport to freedom — but a license may not offer the thrill it once did. Teens are finding there isn't much need to learn to drive. These days there is text messaging and Skype as ways to keep in touch with their friends. Insurance companies and federal statistics show that the number of teenage drivers is down by millions.

Interesting how the teen in the story doesn't mention broadcast or cable as a source of entertainment... only the web and video games.
