About

4th World Post: bringing you street reports, uncut.

Network News is failing us, and newspapers are dying. Different forms of traditional and new media are merging, and we are becoming more and more responsible for our own news. Being informed, truly informed, is becoming an individual’s duty.

This project is an attempt to shine a spotlight on the gritty underworld that exists in every city, in every country.  My name is Kyle Cashulin.  I am a Sojo (Solo Journalist), and will work to bring you news from wherever I am.

I want you to help me. Hell, I want you to surpass me.

Every person knows a story that could impact society.  An arc-welder in Alabama knows that the union boss is corrupt. A high school student in Nevada knows that the local sheriff has a personal agenda against immigrants, or beats skateboarders whom he catches with marijuana.  A college student from Sivakasi, India knows that the factory in his town uses child labor.

If your city has corruption, abuse, poverty, crime, drugs, or disease you have an opportunity to document and spread truth.   Bring to the world the reality of these conditions.  Take pictures with your cell phone.  Tape interviews.  Make us see through your eyes.

There is an argument that unedited, “street” news is inherently flawed-that it is impossible to keep opinions and editorial out of our stories.  This is perfectly true.  But we acknowledge this, and read these stories knowing that we are looking through the eyes of another human being.  We are individuals, from different worlds.  We will definitely not be immune to editorial.

This is not a call for gossip, but a call for unity and truth.

These are your stories. These are our stories.

Information is power.
