About Us

http://nbmediacoop.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=section&layout=blog&id=6&Itemid=192 On New Brunswick Day, August 3, 2009, the New Brunswick Media Co-op launched a province-wide independent, news website and a monthly 2-page print publication called The Brief.

Fastabend outlines a strategy for victory: He said the United States needed bold, decisive moves, a focus on local reconciliation and, perhaps most controversially, a willingness to cut deals with insurgent organizations. Fastabend's writing, dramatically titled How All This Ends: It’s Fourth and Long, Go Deep, has become a work of fiction not only hidden from the public but officially made a state secret.
