Good talking to you today; hope everything goes well with the documentary.

Also, you may be interested in speaking with Erik Kain, who's written for The National Review and wrote for True/Slant as well; he also writes for Balloon Juice, which is one of the best blogs of political commentary out there right now. He's also working with us on Project PM. He may be reached at erik.kain@gmail.com.
Jeremy Sapienza runs a site called BushwickBK.com which covers Bushwick and neighboring areas of Brooklyn. He pays writers a reasonable fund and still manages to turn a small profit. He's also an editor at antiwar.com and is working with Project PM.
Michael Hastings is also with Project PM and may be reached at mhastings@gmail.com. I believe he is out of the country at the moment but you may be able to get in touch with him. Let me know if you need his phone number and I'll dig it out of my inbox for you.
I've attached the manuscript to my upcoming book on the media. Let me know if you'd like to see any materials on Project PM; you can also Google it and get a sense of what we're doing. I'll get back to you when I know when I'm coming up to New York, and will be around if you have any other questions or need more contacts in your area.
My name is Adam Chadwick. I'm a former New York Times copy-editor who was laid-off with the newsroom cuts last December. I am currently producing an independent documentary film on the U.S. newspaper industry crisis titled, "Fit to Print".
I was put in touch with you through a mutual friend - Kai. He passed along your information to me and told me about the work you are doing for the
Huffington Post. I'd like to chat with you about this and get a perspective on how The Huffington Post operates. I'm attempting to connect with Arianna Huffington for an interview, but she seems unreachable (not a surprise).
