Take a look at this. Man throws money into the air, wanted to “spread a little sunshine”. Blog post, quotes, video, the lot.
Every time we mention “citizen media”, we will keep hearing horror stories about unchecked facts, downright lies, superficial reporting, poor use of language, bias and corruption.
But it’s happening. And will continue to happen. Connected scale is a wonderful thing.

Looks like I’m safe from the horror stories until I go home.

The horror stories are usually spread by holier than thou, threatened “established” media. Considering inaccuracies, luck of professionalism, and outright manipulation we subjected to by likes of Reuters and AP it is not surprising.

I like the woman who picks up a few notes then wanders off. Admirable restraint.
