“When, in the course of human events…”
The Erie media is doing a good job of reminding us what the significance of this fourth day of July in the United States.
I appreciated the Erie Times-News printing the Declaration of Independence in its entirety this morning, including the names of those who pledged “to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.
Also giving context to today’s holiday was WQLN-TV’s airing of Rebels and Redcoats, a 2003 BBC/WGBH production that gives you a distinctively British viewpoint on what was for them, The Civil War.
Whether you are inspired and informed or discouraged and frustrated, we want to hear your views on the media both in Erie and everywhere else. Leave a comment below, e-mail me, or tweet @pressandtower.
Embrace the chaos!

The Erie TV market is just plain crummy. When did it start falling so backwards?
I hate Erie so much for many reasons.
If I have to look at Kevin McDowell sitting crossed arm on the set again I think I’ll bite my lips off! He is the “lounge lizzard’ of local TV news anchors.
There’s been a John Rupalo sighting! Is he now an a.m. reporter?
