Podcast journalist and media rebel Mark Fonseca Rendeiro, better known throughout the internets as bicyclemark. Covering under-reported news and global concerns using audio and video podcasting, as well as text, all located at citizenreporter.org

Born and raised in the Portuguese section of Newark, New Jersey, Mark grew up with very close ties to Europe and the country of his heritage, Portugal. Once a researcher at the US's most infamous alternative newspaper, The Village Voice, he eventually moved to Portugal, where he started blogging in 2000. By 2002 he again moved, this time to the Netherlands, where he eventually began recording his podcast in 2004, as one of the first of its kind. Today he continues to produce his podcast, featuring guests from around the globe and focusing on issues that effect human lives and yet receive little attention in the mainstream media.
