I've been thing ForaTV's consept and found that people do not want to watch others discuss -they want to discuss themselves. And since Youtube doesn't work as a easy video conference service, it's too demanding, people don't watch discuss on Youtube. ForaTV thinks that showing others discuss is real free information. Rather it's just elite discussion, which is meaningless when it does mean political decisions.

I've been thinkin ForaTV's concept and found that people do not want to watch others discuss -they want to discuss themselves. And since Youtube doesn't work as an easy video conference service, it's too demanding, people don't watch discussions on Youtube. ForaTV thinks that showing others discuss is real free information. Rather it's just elite discussion, which is meaningless when it does not mean political decisions by representatives.

"Rather it's just elite discussion, which is meaningless when it does mean political decisions."
