When Roger West first launched the progressive political blog "News From The Other Side" in May 2010, he could hardly have predicted the impact that his venture would have on the media and political debate. As the New Media emerged as a counterbalance to established media sources, Roger wrote his copious blogs about national politics, the tea party movement, mid-term elections, and the failings of the radical right to the vanguard of the New Media movement. Roger West's efforts as a leading blogger have tremendous reach. NFTOS has led the effort to bring accountability to mainstream media sources such as FOX NEWS, Breitbart's "Big Journalism. Roger's breadth of experience, engaging style, and cultivation of loyal readership - over 92 million visitors - give him unique insight into the past, present, and future of the New Media and political rhetoric that exists in our society today.

I'VE SEEN ROMNEY & BAIN

The Democratic National Convention last week hosted several music stars to include the Foo Fighters, Mary J. Blige and James Taylor.

James Taylor was probably not expecting his performance to receive too much buzz around the internet (certainly not as much as Eastwooding did from the GOP Convention the week before). However, Jimmy Fallon chose him as the topic of his newest music parody, taking the lyrics to his classic “Fire and Rain” and giving them an election spin – ending up with “Romney and Bain”.




The song was a clear endorsement of the Obama campaign with the refrain: “So I’ll prob’ly vote Obama again”.
