interesting news always crops up. My personal choice for news reception is typicall NOT mainstream “news”, but instead blogs or tech news sites.
Not that I was unaware, but this morning’s news of the CEO of Flock stepping down shows the true effects of the blogosphere changing the tone of news, something we should ALL remember and take to heart.
Start here: Private Equity Week, a financial news journal it seems. fairly reputable (?). proffessional tone.
I got there from: Mashable. Notice how quickly the tone goes from “steps down” to “jumps ship”. Other key terms: Failed, lost, unnecessary. Hm…
and then, where i originally saw the news, on Download Squad, where a lighter tone is taken with the product’s, well, stagnation.
all articles convey the same news, in a very different way. Not unlike how US news and european news tell the same stories drastically different…but now, we’re giving the power to the little guy to tell the news however he THINKS he heard it. Seems pretty dangerous, if you ask me.
