This is one way to promote a new website: Guljan Yergaliyeva, who resigned as editor of the Svoboda Slova newspaper in January in protest against government repression of the media, particularly during the push to pass a referendum to extend the President’s term until 2020, has launched a new media site Guljan. As a symbol of the independence and directness of the new site, Ms. Yergaliyeva has put up a video on Youtube of herself stripping:

The site features the slogan, “Better the naked truth than a well-dressed lie”

Haven’t had time to peruse her site in detail, but the headlines cover problems with the oil industry in the west, high mortgages, questions about the Nurbank controversy and links to blogs by Zhovtis and Abilov. So she isn’t shying away from touchy issues.

Any thoughts on this from other media savvy readers?
