Joe the Plumber hired to report from Israel

Not sure if this is "funny" or not, but I found it interesting. Jury's still out on my deductions.

Is anybody keeping up with his reports? He's over there now, right?

Here's some behind the scenes footage of him doing some reporting:

I find it odd, that he's suggesting that Journalists shouldn't be allowed there, when he's trying to be one?

This is really fascinating.

It's sort of the first in-your-face representation of the layman-as-reporter trend that's happening via blogs, wikis, etc. right now.

I wonder how long that trend will continue--and if it will prove to be a better and more genuine source of news because it's broader-spread.
