I have just set up a Google Group, CTNewsWire. The idea of CTNewsWire is to get State and Local Agencies, Elected Officials, Candidates and Advocacy organizations to send their press releases, media advisories and other material to this list. Bloggers, citizen journalists, activists and others can then use this for their writing and activism.
Currently, there are 115 State Agencies, 169 municipalities, 151 State Representatives, 36 State Senators and numerous advocacy groups. I'm reaching out these people. Your help would be appreciated, as would your subscription to CTNewsWire.
