It's been a rough week on many fronts. At the end of the Boston Marathon, two bombs went off, killing at least three people and maiming dozens of others. The news quickly spread on social media, with crucial updates and offers of support. But there was also people spreading misinformation, and the media blundered by reporting that a suspect was in custody when that wasn't the case. The Mediatwits will discuss the situation in-depth with special guest Gabriel Florit, data visualization specialist for the Boston Globe. Mark Glaser will be hosting the podcast from Austin, Texas, site of the International Symposium for Online Journalism, along with roundtable regulars Monica Guzman, Andrew Lih, Ana Marie Cox and Felix Salmon. The discussion will also touch on InsideClimate News winning a Pulitzer Prize and what that means for non-profit investigative journalism, as well as the rise of mobile ads and soaring mobile usage by teens. |
