"I don't even know where to start! It's just all so much more instant and available. There's far greater opportunity to read news from varying sources and viewpoints , so much more opportunity to fact check, way more opportunity to contribute your opinion and the ability to keep abreast of worldwide current affairs. I think it's great!" The first three articles I read this morning were more doom and gloom. And got me thinking. What was I reading? Why? How did it make me react? Compare it to 20 years ago reading a newspaper which more often than not had editorial accountability for accuracy... Reported the news in more factual language rather than inflammatory opinion. For me now news has become more entertainment than information. | |||

Previously newscasters were forbidden to comment on the news items at all and they certainly wouldn't have had chit chat with the weather person broadcasting from a field in East Anglia. I read my dad's paper this morning notice I omitted the word 'news'. It was truthfully pages of utter twaddle. | |||
