Pinterest sees growing number of journalists using the site, makes related changes | Po... - 0 views

    • hwhisennand
       
      Could this be because it took a long time for journalists to figure out exactly how to make news pertinent on a non-news-focused site?
    • hwhisennand
       
      This is amazing to me. BuzzFeed, a predominantly list-form entertainment new site, seems more suited for the short, 140-character blurbs of Twitter.
    • hwhisennand
       
      AKA people spend A LOT more time on Pinterest, which means your article's half-life increases tenfold.

      This is a great idea on Pinterest's side. Releasing a guide on how to use Pinterest for their needs essentially takes out the "brainstorming" process, which means more time for them to be posting and sharing!
  • Pinterest introduced new article pins Tuesday
  • seeing a growing number or journalists and media sites use Pinterest
  • The site’s ability to drive Web traffic may be a draw for news organizations and journalists.
  • Pinterest sends more traffic to his site than Twitter does.
  • When people visit Pinterest, they browse, they search, they surf, and they uncover more pins.
  • Pinterest has put together a guide for media people on how to use the service

      Storyful is a really cool site that works pretty much solely on providing fact checking for journalists and editors. It also gives a lot of advice about making online content.
    • Jordan Kranse
       
      Is Twitter Wrong focuses on disproving news and rumors from Twitter. Some of what they fact check isn't very official, but there are several good verifications.
    • Jordan Kranse
       
      Keepr compiles similar news from different sources. It makes looking up a certain event in the news really easy.

    This website compiles useful fact checking websites, like Fact Checker. I personally find the Is Twitter Wrong website to be interesting and informative.

Quartz - 0 views

  •  
    "Quartz is a digitally native news outlet for the new global economy." I just found this website today. Perhaps others are familiar with it, but it was completely new to me. It has a global focus and the first story I found focused on how newspapers are covering the protests in Bangkok with drones. I didn't know any country had accepted drone journalism. I also didn't know that people are protesting in Bangkok. The layout of the website is very unique. You can just scroll down to move from story to story. It also has a sidebar listing different content. The layout is refreshing and the site has a lot of unique content I hadn't seen before. This is worth checking out.

    This site, an outlet of Poynter, encourages a discussion on journalism ethics.  It also has a great blog which provides resources on ethical issues journalists are facing in the news right now.

      I enjoy finding new blogs devoted to media criticism, analysis and sticky issues. On The Media from NPR does just that. 
    • Emily Nitcher
       
      Some of the stories are entertaining like this one about an assistant principal filing a lawsuit against his students after they created a parody Facebook account about him.
    • Emily Nitcher
       
      And because the blog is produced by NPR they have some great podcasts. I enjoy a good podcast. This week had a wide variety of topics to enjoy tackling issues from Obamacare to fake news.

      Journalists and editors would find a lot of this social media news to be helpful while trying to expand their own online reach

      This site sponsors a social media conference each year, but only allows about 400 people to come to it to create a more individualized atmosphere. Seems like a neat idea.

Language Log » The Gladwell Pivot - 0 views

    • hwhisennand
       
      Makes a good point here. Writing for scientific literature is VERY different from writing for the general public.
  • Gladwell is like a lot of journalists and public intellectuals whose greater commitment is to what is interesting, not necessarily true.
    • hwhisennand
       
      Since when are journalists committing to what is interesting rather than what is true?
  • ...24 more annotations...
  • readers are moved to think and talk about important questions, situations, and events.
  • the evidence may be circumstantial but he doesn’t just make it up.
  • What if in telling one of these stories, the author inadvertently made life much harder for a large group of people who are disadvantaged in some way?
  • the famous Gladwell pivot, whereby he sets up an issue one way and then flips it around.
    • hwhisennand
       
      Does this method ALWAYS work? Is there a time where it wouldn't?
  • an extraordinarily high percentage of entrepreneurs are dyslexic
  • It’s that having dyslexia, and dealing with its consequences, played a causal role in their success.
  • Gladwell seems oblivious to how deeply hurtful the “desirable difficulty” suggestion might be to people who have to deal with being dyslexic, and to the parents who struggle, against institutional resistance, to get their dyslexic children help.
  • His light entertainment is likely to make it harder for many dyslexics to gain recognition of their condition from educators, or the early diagnosis and intervention that is effective for many.
    • hwhisennand
       
      This is definitely something that MUST be considered by all writers. Is there ANYONE ELSE being impacted? How are they being impacted? Think of EVERYONE involved in the story.
  • So here’s an irony: what if Gladwell’s chapter makes it harder for a dyslexic to achieve the levels of success he venerates?
  • it has no bearing on what to do about a dyslexic child.
  • he’s created a meme whose existence doesn’t depend on being true.
  • Gladwell has a vastly larger audience and far more influence on what people think than any scientist who studies dyslexia or advocacy organizations like the International Dyslexia Association.
    • hwhisennand
       
      Important: This is the influence most journalists have on the general public as well.
  • , it’s rational to be concerned that Gladwell’s message of desirable difficulty will have undesirable consequences for the mass of individuals who are dyslexic.
  • Gladwell knows this; he just wants it also known that the condition apparently had remarkably positive effects for some people, and why.
  • Now parents may be faced with yet another response: dyslexia isn’t a developmental disability, it’s desirable.
  • Is this Gladwell’s exact message? No. Will it be taken that way? Yes. Does his book promote shallow thinking about dyslexia? Absolutely. Was Chapter 3 such a compelling, rock-solid story that it had to be told, whatever the consequences? I don’t think so.
    • hwhisennand
       
      Can this be said about any other story you've read recently?
  • not letting facts get in the way of a good story
  • Each chapter (or New Yorker article) explores an interesting, usually counterintuitive, idea by means of an engaging narrative, woven out of several types of cloth: personal biographies, telling anecdotes, research studies, expert opinions.
  • The average reader is not aware of what has been left out and thus can be easily mislead.
  • This is particularly bothersome to scientists whose own first commandment is something like: thou shalt address all relevant evidence, not merely the findings that support the most interesting, attention-getting hypothesis.
