The American program Frontline is about to publish a story about kids online. I haven't seen it yet, but the site's design and trailer for the film look like it's dipping into fearsome cyberspace territory. The latter is narrated by a grim, sober voice, and describes notoriety, semiliteracy, dubious identities, and some vague threats. The former is dark and cheerless, unusually so for a cultural artifact describing kids.

I saw this at Will Richardson's and he said the same thing--ugh! We Tivo Frontline so we'll be watching it. Maybe we should live blog it.

Goodness, I wish for once someone would do a story on all the GOOD that online interaction does for kids. Shame on you Frontline for focusing on only one side of the issue.
