THE LAUNCH OF IMC-PALESTINE
The IMC-Palestine website launched 28 March, 2002, brings Indymedia innovation to the civil war. Using Indymedia's innovative "open-publishing" newswire, journalists and activists on the scene have had the ability to upload articles, images, audio, and video, directly and immediately to the Indymedia newswires, without the filters and controls of most media. With very little publicity, the IMC-Palestine site has had phenomenal traffic, a testament to the poignancy of immediate, and authentic, grassroots reporting.
