    Kill Video Dog Now! Part II

    Since my last post, I've visited six other independent news sites and each one had a video clip of Bush being briefed before Katrina hit, especially the clips where the experts tell him the levees will fail and flooding will be disasterous. And what do we get here at Salon's Video Dog? The opening segment of the Ellen show.

    How many people here were hoping for a "War Room" type video blog? How many here were hoping for something bettert than this crap? How many here were hoping for something better than a collection of dog photos?

    How many people are going to join me in leaving Salon unless they kill Video Dog or get new people running it by the end of the week? There's hundreds of important videos out there, and these idiots don't even show one.
