Distributed watchdogging of local media election coverage

I’m extremely pleased to see that the Alliance for Better Campaigns is organizing Election News Watchdog, a project to monitor the election coverage of local media outlets.

They’ve made it easy for volunteers to watch local TV broadcasts, then use the web to report on their coverage of state & local elections.

Great, great stuff. I’ll be filling out scorecards as I watch local news over the next few weeks. I encourage you to do the same.
