press release
Wednesday October 08, 2003 21:21 by narc - Anarchomedia Collective anarchomedia at yahoo dot co dot uk
![Report this post to the editors Report this post to the editors](../graphics/report.gif)
Announcing the launch of a new anarchist/anti-authoritarian news and resources site for anarcho’s & the general public in Ireland. What is Anarchomedia
Anarchomedia provides a common, interactive platform for anarchists in Ireland to post reports and to facilitate publication from anarcho’s who don't have the ability to publish themselves, e.g. without the necessary skills/time for websites, the copier access for newsletters, or the collective strength of organisation on the struggle towards an anarchist society and against the current forms of oppression; capitalism, gender isolation, racism and environmental degredation. Not to concentrate solely on the negative, Anarchomedia also carries reports on what is being done by anarchists and ordinary people to bring an end to this system of exploitation. Reports on Anarchomedia cover a wide range of issues and topics – from community organising to international mobilisations against capital, from anti-war activism to environmental activism.
The Workings of Anarchomedia
The content on Anarchomedia is created by a collective going under the guise of the Anarchomedia Collective. Unlike Indymedia, Anarchomedia does not operate an “open publishing” newswire but a moderated newswire where the content is posted by the collective of editors. While not wanting to be critical of the concept of “open publishing” we want a media where a certain level of reporting can always be expected by our readers. By having a closed newswire we can also effectively rule out the presence of trolls and spamming of the newswire. Readers can post comments on the articles posted to the site allowing for open debate on the newswire.
Other Services
Anarchomedia also offers other services to the anarchist & activist community in Ireland. As well as anarchist news, Anarchomedia features forum’s to move debate from the newswire. The forums exist to allow for debate between anarchists and anyone else who wishes to visit the site. The newswire also features notifications for upcoming events. Organisers of events should contact the collective and we will publicise the event on the site.
While all of the above are now ready for visitors and participation (only a few articles are online at the moment, be patient more will come) we are now working on putting together several sections that will have an abundance of information on anarchism and the anarchist scene in Ireland. Anarchomedia will supply its visitors with a directory of publications by anarchists/anti-authoritarian individuals or groups, a list of active anarchist/anti-authoritarian/grassroots groups, an introduction to anarchism and information on book shops and autonomous/radical zone’s around the island.
Getting Involved
Anarchomedia needs more editors as we don’t yet have a full house. If you think you have what it takes to be an anarchomedia editor and agree to the editorial policy (see the end of this press statement) then email us, tell us all about yourself, who you are, where you’re from, why you wanna get involved, organisations, groups or campaigns your involved in and whatever else you can think we might need/want to know.
If you’re interested, here’s a little bit of info on the collective:
- The Anarchomedia collective work on a non-hierarchical basis
- We reject all systems of domination and discrimination and come from varying anarchist tendencies (and no problems!).
- Anarchomedia has been given it’s webspace by comrades in the Anarchist Federation but remains independent from that and any other organisations
- We understand that by lobbying there will be no radical change. As a collective our attitude is assertive, and where necessary confrontational.
- Recruit, recruit, and recruit!!!
- In order to join the collective you must either meet with one of the members of the collective in your area or know one of us.
If you don’t want to join the collective but have an article you think should be on Anarchomedia then you can use the Submit article form on the website to take part.
Anarchomedia is now live and can be found at the following address:
www.anarchomedia.cjb.net
You can email the collective at anarchomedia@yahoo.co.uk

On behalf of the Anarchomedia Collective,
We look forward to growing with the anarchist & activist community, so take a minute and take a peak.
One of the Anarchomedia Editor’s

As promised the Anarchomedia Editorial Policy
Purpose of anarchoMEDIA
anarchoMEDIA exist as a tool for all anarchists and other anti-authoritarian activists in Ireland to promote anarchism and anti-authoritarianism as a viable alternative to the corrupt global capitalist system in place today and as an alternative to the false promises of Leninist organisations. Anarchomedia exists as an ecumenical online resource for the anarchist movement, which aims to promote all forms of anti-capitalist anarchism to the greater public.
Editorial Policy
This is the first version of the anarchoMEDIA Editorial Policy. Further changes should and will be done to this document as this website grows.
1) anarchoMEDIA is NOT an open newswire. People are welcome to submit news to the editors, but there is no expectation that every item will be approved. This is mainly because of resource limitations, but also because of content and other issues.
2) We try to keep the number of posts per day below 15 so as to allow readers to keep up with the news. On busy days, such as days of major activities this limit may be exceeded.
3) First priority on the newswire is given to articles and news written by or about anarchists/anti authoritarians. On slow news days, the newswire will include a variety of articles and news of interest to readers, as well as radical articles that would be of interest to the general public.
4) anarchoMEDIA will often include articles from other sources other than anarchists, such as corporate media, socialist websites and other sources not specifically anarchist. The reason for this is to allow anarchists to discuss other topics.
5) News stories and opinion should be newsworthy and current.
6) Articles and excerpts from magazines and zines should be submitted by people associated with the publication. For this reason if you have a publication please contact anarchoMEDIA and we will give you access rights to post articles and excerpts from your publications.
Policy on Comments
Comments that break the following 'rules' will be deleted:
1. Duplicate Comments.
2. Articles posted as a comment.
3. Any comments with racist, xenophobic or fascist viewpoints.
4. Insults or slurs (keep it mature).
5. Misuse of a nom de guerre.
6. Mimicking the Editorial Collective.
7. Disruptive posts designed to interfere with the operation of the website.
8. Trolling of any kind will not be accepted
Comments that break the following 'rules' will be monitored closely by the collective and may be deleted:

Well done.
...data trackers and reg keys e.g. Gator etc. Loaded on 'puters they make them more prone to viruses and other unknown and initially undetectable downloads. Some of us are paranoid you know!
The Mammy Harney would be proud of (y)our 'efficiency'
And a lovely anarko-babby it is too.
What is the (c) position with the stuff published on the site?
what 'data trackers' are you talking about? Do you know what the 'data' is? If it is 'tracking data' do you need to be worried because you have something to hide?
the site itself is has no microsoft affiliated crap running on it. we are hosted on a secure anarchist server called flag.blackened.net (you may know of it) so it doesnt come from our server. but, we use a free url redirection service at www.cjb.net as we cant afford a domain right now they. cjb.net use these, not our site.
for this reason we recommend mozilla. mozilla blocks out all of these annoying prog's. in case your that paranoid, just say no to anything that pop's up! quite simple!
there is no copyright, it's all copyleft. look at the footer of the page you'll see N©!, fairly self explanatory...
anyway thanks for the positive feedback
Looks great - must be a lot of thought and work went into that. Great stuff!
solidarity
You can bypass the cjbnet cookies etc by going directly to the site at http://flag.blackened.net/af/Undercurrents/
But a domain name only costs around 30 euro a year.
will go back and look again, welcome to the family.

I notice that any "Any comments with racist,
xenophobic or fascist viewpoints." will be deleted.
What about sexist or misogynistic comments?
Read the piece, couldn't find the URL, It's probably starin me in the face..
: http://www.anarchomedia.cjb.net
checked out the site. looks great. ireland's in the 21st century!
will of course be deleted the minute they are detected. didnt think we'd have to state that being anarchist's but this is only ver 0.2 of the editorial policy... thanks for pointing it out though
and thanks for the positive comments
We are in the process of acquiring a url for anarchomedia, watch this space.
but its a fucking sweet looking site. Really like the layout.
Dunno if you should have used the word 'mouthpiece' though. Its kind of a horrible word if you ask me.
And no news in the Leinster section. tut tut.
your a lovable little green thing aint you, can i keep him?
I'd like to take you home and give you love.
it's super, nice one.
with tons of free mail servers around (mail.boxmail.biz) why do many activists, see globalize resistance, still use yahoo mail? ...
