Not comparable with the the Rodney King case and the attention the recording on video got back then, but maybe still as a kind of public yet alternative information-, image- and discourse-circulation: After the killing of 16 y/o Derrion Albert by some gangs in Chicago, a lot of youtube videos popped up with people commenting on, i.e. mostly condemning the incident, but also reflecting on how things could be changed and on the transmission and distribution of information.... a challenge or a confirmation to Juhasz statement about the lack of political activism through youtube? (anticipating Lara's presentation this Friday a little)
most viewed - clip.

"I cried"-analysis and police-critique. (woman!)
censorship, anonymity, strangeness
making a music clip out of it
