David Carr on the way ahead for U.S. newspapers out of the box canyon they find themselves in, and beyond Google News
04/08/2009
The NYT and LA Times, Chicago Tribune and Boston Globe, the list of struggling newspapers goes on. Carr describes the war of words between the digital journalists, lawyers, Google News and the newspapers who have cut back as much as they can. Words like sewer and attenuating reporting in media if they don't provide the links to Google News leading to a wasteland for the news media, threats and counterthreats, and finesse from Google News. No mention is made of the role of journalists in modern society, the words "this country and its press will rise and fall together" are long forgotten.

"News" and knowledge of the outside world in the the era of digital newspapers and 24 hour television news channels
04/13/2009
A sense that most of the news is repetitive, and that young people do not follow the digital news to the same extent as older generations did for print media. Many of the news channels focus on presenting the news for reinforcing views of their audience, bringing a selective aspect to the news. The more news is ubiquitous the less it is able to educate people and provide reliable information. Social and instant media gives equal importance to rumor and facts.

World wide web creator Tim Berners-Lee targets fake news - BBC News
BBC News 04/28/2017
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
