I land somewhere in the middle of this argument. I believe that impartiality should remain a focus of good news writing but that news also has a lot that it could learn from the opinion and column ...
As someone who worked on editing the story and making the call to go ahead and publish it despite knowing that the situation was still changing, I think situations like this can be really tricky bu...
I thought this article was outstanding. The add ons and all the new technology really made it more interesting. The videos made it seem extremely real. After I read it I told my dad we should get g...
"Students raised on a diet of Internet posts and instant messages may be unlikely to be future newspaper readers". I liked these two quotes a lot. The first I feel pretty accurately reflects what ...
I believe the topic does qualify to be published because it shines light on things that people would not normally know about. the fact that some "hipster" parents are boycotting the use of diapers ...
I think that media coverage plays an extremely important part in the public's perception of events. While I think that the Boston bombings have been covered fairly well overall, news stations have ...
I agree with all that has been said above. After a big incident like the Boston Bombings I think it makes sense and should be expected that new rules such as small backpacks and no unregistered par...
This is interesting - I'm glad they published it, but I agree with the people who say they could have gone deeper. I say this because it doesn't go into the role of TA's much - how many students a...
When I first read this I thought "whoa this is so cool". Now thinking about it Google Glass is just very impractical, especially if facebook or news stories keep popping up in your face. Especially...
In this case, getting it right is definitely more important than getting it first. After a few days, police and detectives were still uncovering what really happened during the bombing and who star...

I found this a bit tedious towards the end, but actually a lot of fun. I think that this could be a tool, but I don't see how this would work with most news articles. This article was matching quot...
I'd agree with Veronica about news organizations today. They intentionally blow things out of proportion, because bigger catastrophes get bigger ratings. So does quickness; sometimes this, as we've...
The reason that cursive was common is because it is a faster way to write without being illegible - and for me, since I use it often, it is exactly that. I think we should stress typing more than c...
I really liked this idea, and found it very captivating, however it would have been interesting to be able to read a little bit about these people along with the pictures. It would be interesting t...
I agree with what everyone has said above. I think that it would be a great addition to the magazine, and definitely if not published in print, would be a great page for the website. The fashion tr...
Sander, thanks for sharing this article written by the esteemed UChicago alumnus David Brooks!!!!! I think this is an important article in thinking about both the biases of the national media (Fo...
I agree with Aaron that the NYT wasn't giving free publicity to the pranksters of the world. The reporter, J. David Goodman, provided detailed coverage by speaking with the New York City Police Dep...
