However, I wonder if your research could extend to examine the legitimacy that blogs will garner in a more digitalized news era. The Huffington Post plays a prime example of a new outlet. It may also open an opportunity for the public to play a greater role in challenging major organizations by participating in the sharing of information. I suppose this may be outside your scope of research but it might be interesting to consider/delve into.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16828279956944283037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-797254726302984101.post-31343340773180621382011-10-03T10:35:39.601-04:002011-10-03T10:35:39.601-04:00Booth I love this topic, my topic is very similar ...Booth I love this topic, my topic is very similar in that profit is destroying news today. No longer are journalist diving deep into the cold facts, yet they are just doing what will get published. They are chasing mainstream news when they should be chasing what serves the public. Technology and Internet and changing the game, and some things are being left behind(journalism). Look forward to seeing your project.Robert Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12649801075287342906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-797254726302984101.post-43865169151433214822011-10-03T10:24:54.279-04:002011-10-03T10:24:54.279-04:00It is strange to see what has become a staple of A...It is strange to see what has become a staple of American society fading away. You can see all the cuts mad at the NY Times one of the most popular newspapers in the world and know things are headed south. Im curious what will happen to the local paper industry. They only way I got news about my hometown was through the paper. I wonder if that will be digitized too?Alex Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279680976500694905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-797254726302984101.post-61043286232497085282011-10-02T22:12:18.010-04:002011-10-02T22:12:18.010-04:00This is a topic I considered doing as well, just l...This is a topic I considered doing as well, just like everything else the technology is changing the face of the news industry. It could pose a problem for newspapers and journals, but I feel that some people still may want the physical news, so it will be interesting to see what the industry decides to do. I'd like to hear about maybe one newspaper or magazine and how they are handling the whole issue just to give the readers something more concrete.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04242347079640094479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-797254726302984101.post-69261069564316255802011-10-02T21:47:45.984-04:002011-10-02T21:47:45.984-04:00This whole thing with newspapers being a dying bus...This whole thing with newspapers being a dying business interests me too even though I'm doing a different topic. Maybe try looking in to how social networking sites like Twitter has affected the news and how it is reported as well. After all, if Twitter reports the news within seconds, what's the point of having print news at all? I still feel like online newspapers are needed but from what I've read lately, they just seem to be columnists writing about what they think should be done about certain things.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04213616817611728033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-797254726302984101.post-8706259511989013962011-10-02T21:39:58.768-04:002011-10-02T21:39:58.768-04:00Wow.

I think that in a couple years from now, we wont even have newspapers, so this research should give us a better understanding for how this phenomenon is taking place. Kudos to you Dil, great idea!Lukas Moranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17088762190808469057noreply@blogger.com
