Jill,

I think you sum it up well: “The problem with much of our media is that it is not immediate. Many media outlets have not scaled to be able to do real 24/7 news.” I agree that is much of the problem, and hopefully that will change as the media buys into things like Twitter more.

The problem with much of our media is that it is not immediate. Many media outlets have not scaled to be able to do real 24/7 news. Twitter and other social media sites are filling the gap. They are the town crier. BTW in my car this morning, I heard one radio station pronounce that the 690 to 81 ramp was already closed, while another said that it was going to close after rush hour. And who was right? The first one. Obviously the second station didn't have someone feeding it up-to-date information and perhaps hasn't built a network of followers (even Twitterers) who are willing to do so.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('7565','Jill Hurst-Wahl'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('7565','Jill Hurst-Wahl','Twitter is immediate communication.
