Did you know there are thousands of documents and public records you can access from your local, state or federal governments simply by requesting them and citing the Freedom of Information (FOI) laws?


about triangle citizen journalists

There are many citizen journalists here on GOLO and I think you're one of them. Just because you don’t consider yourself a “citizen journalist,” doesn’t mean that you don’t have what it takes to become one.

We’ve got some great minds here, people who question the status quo and want answers to unanswered questions.

A citizen journalist comes in many forms. Just think of all of the thought-provoking blog posts we read here and some of the great discussions and debates that come out of the news stories.

So, if you feel so inclined, join this group where we will discuss several areas where trained journalists have a wealth of  experience, such as accessing public records and meetings, the basics of media law and journalism ethics. 

We'll also share ides for stories and blogs and discuss ways to enhance them and get more bang for your buck. It'll be fun. Trust me.

Anyone heading to the mountains this weekend be sure to take the camera. I have friends and family up there and the drought has produced one of the best fall colors in years.

Gotta think on this for a bit.

Ideas ideas ideas??? Hmmmmm....

Made comes in a wipes the dust off the counter and puts his thinking cap on as he cleans the lens of his camera. Talking to himself he says, "Ok Mr. Fuji, let's show the world what you can take....

Where is every one?

Leave it up to Angela to keep things interesting and lively for us all! This is by far the greatest idea yet for GOLO! Angela I sure hope that your boss is aware of the many hard hours you devote to your baby "Golo"!
