The Boston Globe may be cutting their news room staffers – but they're scraping together some funds to push through some new media. According to the Pop-Ed site, where the videos are posted, "Boston.com is proud to present 'Pop-Ed,' a daily original song and accompanying video written and performed by local musician Jake Brennan, focusing on news and events that take place that day. Jake will find news of interest in the morning and then start writing." The composition is featured with video on Boston.com in the mid afternoon and aired nightly on WBOS around 9 pm. The Pop-Ed feature has been given a trial run that wraps up at the end of the week – Boston.com won't say if Jake will be renewed or if they'll give a shot to another local artist. Today's installment embedded below is based on a piece about Parker Posey in her latest film role. In the spirit of participatory new media, you can help Jake write tomorrow's feature.
