Announcing Alive in Baghdad: Uncut
By Tim.(cross-posted from the Veracifier blog. This is our second show on the Veracifier network, following TPM TV)
Today we’re premiering the first episode of Alive in Baghdad: Uncut, a new series from the creators of Alive in Baghdad, a weekly videoblog produced by a team of Americans and Iraqi correspondents on the ground which brings testimonies from individual Iraqis, footage of daily life in Iraq, and short news segments from Iraq to you.
Each Friday, Alive In Baghdad: Uncut will present a report which originally appeared on Alive in Baghdad, with the addition of new commentary or added context from the Alive in Baghdad staff, bringing us up to date on the people and stories within. We’ll also link to the videos as they originally appeared on their site.
When we began looking for unique perspectives to be part of the programming here on Veracifier, Brian Conley and the Alive in Baghdad team were the first people we called. We’ve been avidly following their work since we first came across them last year, and when we began to hear some of the stories about how some of their reports were made, it seemed that there was a rich vein for a project together.
We hope you’ll check out the series, and please leave a comment or send an email to let us know what you think. The first episode is live now.

I hope that they reach the wide audience that their work deserves.
