I don't usually watch CNN, but caught it one day while they had a program running called "In the blogs"... a sign of the times.
The topic of decentralized vs centralized media, especially news, is a very complicated one with alot of hard questions. While i like the decentralized media myself, there is always the questions of echo chambers. I guess the real question is if we want one big echo chamber (mass media) or increasing number of smaller ones (rss feeds, social news networks, etc) It's all getting cyper punk :) -Addi http://esc.chicorockstar.com On 1/22/06, Jay dedman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I was listeing to the radio in the car yesterday and heard a whole > show about blogging. > The host had guests who debated about what was going on with certain blogs. > something about how coverage was affecting politcs etc. > > then i realized, what if blogs got so popular that TV and radio just > became places where people discussed what was going on in the > blogsphere? > like Hollywood or the Beltway, people would discuss certain > personalities, the in's and out's of coverage, nuances of certain > posts. > > as more people turn to the web during their off time, traditional > media will be forced to cover what people are talking about. > > just a interesting idea. > > Jay > > > > > -- > Adventures in Videoblogging > <http://www.momentshowing.net> > <http://getFireAnt.com> > <http://node101.org> > > > ________________________________ > YAHOO!
