This is a very interesting piece but if you're going to talk about the big picture of media development then surely it's more than a little mypopic not to mention USAID's funding of Internews implemented projects all over the map. Is this a good or a bad thing? What does USAID hope to achieve with all these projects? How is Internews really rated: a self claimed 'leader' in media development and media development thinking or a DC lap dog?

If you're talking about media development and you're not not mentioning any of this, then your picture is incomplete...no?
