Gelatinous Blog.

It was difficult to retain any of the information from that radio… dinger… But I will dig deep into the bottomless pits of my mind and recall what little knowledge I absorbed.

Civic Journalism: When a journalist actually goes to a specific place and becomes part of the situation. Uh… Jill mentioned a Journalist being embedded in an Army over in Iraq. That journalist would be able to write reports based on their experiences during the war.

Civilian Journalism: An untrained, civilian writing about their experiences as an everyday citizen. For example: Jill mentioned people living in Iraq. The civilians caught up in this war write about how it has effected their lives and other depressing aspects.


How ‘Wiki’ has changed how we gather information:
Well… Everything is point and click these days. If we want something, we want it now. Wikipedia provides instant access to information on basically anything you are looking for. This information may not always be 100% accurate but that’s where we come in.

Wiki’s rely on people to edit and post accurate information relating to a certain subject. If a vandal ignorantly posts false information, it can be changed by anyone or previous information may be restored by an administrator.

Uhhh…. Something was also mentioned about a black guy… and how the whities were keeping him down.

They should have radio too. Stop the hate!
