Twitter

Okay, this interview annoyed me a little bit. I just got the feeling this guy was cocky and annoying. ha, but overlooking that aspect of the interview I saw some truth in it. I never read the newspaper, and I never have... but I personally think that the reasoning for this is the generation I come from. Were the technology babies, like he said in the interview it is not like I have to go looking for news it always has just come to me. I personally do not use Twitter, but I do have a facebook and if anything big is going on in the world I can promise you that a minimum of 300 people are going to make it their status. Plus we have all these links on our e-mails today that give us the headlines, and if they catch your eye you click them and read them for free. I believe the newspaper industry is going down slowly. I mean I work at a McDonald's who used to sell USA today papers, but we made so little money on it they just stopped. My parents no longer get the newspaper because you can just go to NewYorkTimes.com and get everything you need for free, up to the minute, and it's even in a better format. So I guess what I am saying with this is that even though the man in the interview annoyed me, I completely agree with him. The medium in which we receive our news is changing, and I do not think many people have a problem with that.
