Bloggers and Politics in South Korea
CHEN:
South Korean bloggers are not only taking to the streets protesting U.S. beef imports but also becoming influential citizen journalists. Their online claim that beef import could put Koreans at risk of mad cow disease, was watched by two hundred million Internet users a day.
STORY:
The recent beef protests in Seoul are the biggest South Korea has seen in 20 years. Spurred by a flurry of online gripes that a deal to import US beef put society at risk of mad cow disease - these tech-savvy activists showed that they could take control of political and news agendas.
[Do Jung-Gwan, Citizen Journalist]:
"We just relied on the established media in the past to get to know the important issues. But it has changed -- we can take pictures ourselves and post them on the Internet. This new culture is changing the way our country does politics."
The government was caught off-guard.
After winning by a landslide in December's election, the president's approval rating is now barely 20 percent.
With technology, activists also became more potent protesters, sending out messages urging friends to meet up at demonstrations and warning them when the police started to make arrests.
They didn't just shout slogans - they took pictures, quickly posting them on the Internet - going from activists to "citizen journalists."
Some websites went from 40 million pages viewed a day to 200 million. However, there is the need to weed through biased opinions and inaccurate reports.
One citizen journalist said it wasn't easy to post pictures or videos on the Internet which went against the popular flow.
[Lee Gwi-Jin, Citizen Journalist]:
"If we post any pictures representing the government's opinion or any pictures showing the demonstrator's violence, many say we're working for the ruling party -- even if we always try to report impartially. I feel at a loss with the situation."
It just proves the Internet is powerful, if not unwieldy.

Greek blog aggregator arrested
Published 1 month ago in Internet, Journalism, Technology, WSIS, IGF
The Internet Governance Forum will start on Monday morning but already the debate has started - and it is surrounding freedom of speech online.
There are several reports that the Greek authorities arrested a man for linking - not writing, but linking - to blog posts that had satirised a businessman (possibly a TV evangelist). The businessman complained to the police and the police picked up the adminstrator of blog aggregation site blogme.gr - and charged him.
Update: The man arrested was Antonis Tsipropoulos and the target of the satire was Dimosthenis Liakopoulos - a controversial Greek tele-evangelist. The satire site that mocks Mr Liakopoulos can be found at funel.blogspot.com, but since it is hosted in the US, neither the Greek authorities nor even Mr Liakopoulos can get at it.
What Mr Tsipropoulos has been charged with, god only knows. But this is a spectactular own goal by the Greek authorites on the eve of the IGF. Particularly since making a crime of linking to someone else's content is pure, and legally foolhardy, censorship.
It's all over the Greek blogosphere, but I can't understand the majority of it. Except for the fact that there appears to be movement building to protest outside the conference hotel as a statement against the arrest.
Yesterday, Amnesty International started a campaign to draw attention to those blogger across the world that have been imprisoned because of information they have posted online.
