Transcript of #editorchat 6/10
[21:14:41] bacigalupe: bacigalupe @milehighfool the speed at which it is happening, changes some of the rules though, similar to this dialogue, right? #editorchat
[21:14:51] cutestkidever: @KakieF I’m sure I’ll have more to say on the subject when my son gets older.
#editorchat
[21:14:56] KakieF: How late does this discussion go this evening? #editorchat
[21:14:57] TimOBrienNYT: Explain how it gets monetized RT @deegospel: @jimnduncan sites reporting “news” first has monetary incentive #editorchat
[21:15:00] SpecialDee: Q1 hmm, maybe Link Economy comes into play; put a link on your site to another news site that has had time to check facts #editorchat
[21:15:00] milehighfool: @rondoylewrites Precisely. There’s a fine balance that demands thoughtful judgment. #editorchat
[21:15:16] Wanderlust13: Craig Newmark recently told a group of journos “Trust is the new black.” Can’t give that up, can we? #editorchat #editorchat
[21:15:16] deannatroupe: @cutestkidever That is a very good starting point for kids when discussing the media. #editorchat
[21:15:21] cutestkidever: RT @learncreativity: Teach kids about point of view and how narrow can be right & skewed simultaneously #editorchat
[21:15:25] anndouglas: @bacigalupe BTW – Thanks for raising that issue (facts falling apart at earlier stage of rolling story). Important. #editorchat
[21:15:36] BillHarper: Do online pubs take more risks because they know they can change the story quickly. Newspapers stories are permanent #editorchat
[21:15:40] KakieF: @cutestkidever Putting things into context can be a challenge sometimes. #editorchat
[21:16:01] milehighfool: @bacigalupe Does it change the rules? I think the rules of good judgment always apply but decisions do happen faster. #editorchat
[21:16:06] KakieF: @cutestkidever That is about where my son is right now (2nd grade) learning editing #editorchat
[21:16:13] merylkevans: @cutestkidever Already have to deal with this by telling kids commercials make toys look better than they really are. #editorchat
[21:16:16] Ballyhoo: @BillHarper >Newspapers stories are permanent #editorchat < So is the web #editorchat
[21:16:17] TimOBrienNYT: What’s the goal? RT @SpecialDee: Q1 put a link on your site to another news site that has had time to check facts #editorchat
[21:16:25] cutestkidever: @BillHarper Definitely! I watched a local news story get edited three times after it was published yesterday. #editorchat
[21:16:50] milehighfool: @BillHarper They’re in print but they aren’t permanent — corrections and retractions do occur. #editorchat
[21:16:50] KakieF: One night my son said “Hey mom! I know about the Five finger retail!” I nearly slammed on the breaks of the car and asked #editorchat
[21:16:51] learncreativity: show kids how different history books will take the same event and twist it @cutestkidever #editorchat
[21:17:03] KakieF: Who taught you that? #editorchat
[21:17:07] BillHarper: @Ballyhoo Not if you change the story quickly enough and there’s only one live version of it. #editorchat
[21:17:11] JenniferPerillo: RT @BillHarper: Maybe they should prefix it with something like “Developing story”. (exactly what I was thinking) #editorchat
[21:17:14] debmarkham: Depends on the reputation being damaged. (KIDDING!) Seriously, should we never report rumors? Where’s the line? Who decides? Q1 #editorchat
[21:17:25] KakieF: He said “My teacher” and then I said, well, what did he tell you? #editorchat
[21:17:26] cutestkidever: @merylkevans Very true! We try to watch commercial-free TV right now (Noggin) so we haven’t had too much discussion about them. #editorchat
