I haven't seen one of those in more than 20 years. You make a good point about news today - it is ubiquitous. Inescapable. With many news organizations hanging by a budget string, stories are becoming more sensational and dramatic. “Beeper?” I haven’t seen one of those in more than 20 years.

I'm only encouraged they are at least recognizing this other form of news (which is far outpacing their reach) exists. I would bet most stories break via twitter (in the small) and FB statuses (in the large scale) much more consistently to the actual reader. Who sits around and watches TV all day? Even the news stations constantly playing in waiting rooms annoys me anymore.

I love these mainstream media guys who don't understand social media or even better try to manipulate it. It always ends in disaster. The picture is fantastic, I don't know how much of those sources you must have had to watch to get such a great montage. A great post Dave.
