Contrasting stories about the media - Apr 9, 2016

#humor #media

While checking the Mediagazer feed at 8:50 a.m., these were the first three stories:

Mediagazer - 2016-04-09T06:15:46-04:00

On the future of serious audio news, and what NPR leadership must do to avoid diminishing (Adam Davidson) - 2016-04-09T06:15:00-04:00

How BuzzFeed got 800K concurrent Facebook Live viewers by exploding a watermelon using rubber bands (Benjamin Mullin/Poynter) - 2016-04-09T00:10:00-04:00

How The Marshall Project built a searchable encyclopedia for criminal justice journalism (Kristen Hare/Poynter) - 2016-04-08T23:20:06-04:00

The second and third stories caught my attention. Both started with the word "How" and from that point, the stories diverged a lot.

The so-called future of media may unfortunately be buzzfeed and exploding produce. But the Marshall Project is magnitudes more important.
