| I heard about this yesterday and thought, "Yeah, that'll last," and then moved on.
But then I saw Anderson Cooper's take on it. Frikken hilarious!

| This (among many many other things) is why CNN is miles ahead of Fox News. | |||

| Indeed.
I busted up when he said "rill." That was exactly what I kept saying to myself when she kept saying it. And why would a 16-year-old need to reassure people that she has never done porn? |

| CNN has been slowly sinking in my opinion because of their reliance on Twitter for their reporting... this makes me like them again. Slowly, slowly, they are becoming the network that seriously mocks the dumbasses on the internet and that pleases me.
And for the record, I am betting Yasu is 100% right. I am betting night-vision style like Paris Hilton. |

Originally posted by Sorcha Rohan When you are a journalist, on a news show, covering an important topic... your course of action should NOT be "let's ask what people on Twitter think of the issue" when you have barely given any fucking information on it at all. What ever happened to... oh, I don't know, reporting? Investigating? Fact finding? Not asking what your followers on Twitter think about what is going on. |

| Elara, believe me when I say I completely agree with you.
Being in the field has shown me a few things about modern journalism, namely that they do things the general public likes -- like reading off what people on Twitter said. It's like those Man on the Street boxes in newspapers where they ask random people a question and then take people's pictures and place a quote of their answer with the photo. I guess they like having the public's say included? But yes, the fact that they turn to Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, FriendPile, FuckFace, etc, for their news gathering is really weak. Even worse -- when they get their information from Wikipedia. It's been proven that some journalists are THAT stupid and have taken bad information from it and dropped it into stories. |

| If I get any information from Wikipedia, I check its source first. If there isn't a reliable source of information on the other end, I don't take any of it with a grain of salt. | |||

| Which is the smart thing to do, Nelrith. It is great for a quick reference, but it should never be used as a serious source. | |||

| To be perfectly honest, no, I cannot believe it at all. That might help her now, but it's gonna suck later. | |||

Originally posted by Elara My thoughts exactly. You WANT to be that chick that people card at 30-something, not be able to get away with it when you're just old enough to make a learner's permit. |
