ONLINE NEWS
The emergence of the Web as a power in the
gathering and dissemination of the news is not good news for the
giants of the information age although sites such as CNN and
the London
Times, as well as the news services like APP
and Reuters,
are there there is also a new happening on the Web, the
individual online news services ranging from news services of
quality with a a local slant such as the THE
TEXAS GAZETTE to the Drudge
report they are out there. This is not a comfortable
situation for the big boys of the information age as they for the
first time have real competition a person operating alone can
compete for the same audience as a major corporation.
This situation has given rise to everyone from
the IRA
to the Cow
Liberation Army having a direct contact with
the larger population, without the interpretation of the media
moguls having the role of filter to the information, thus, I
believe giving us, the people for most likely the first time in
history access to information from the source. We may in
fact be the most informed generation in history, exposed to ideas
so diverse that we will have to exercise for the first time real
judgment and examination of our long held opinions.
