Black Is The New Blood

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the failure of traditional media outlets…Mainly their failure to get it right. I watch a lot of MSNBC, and, to their credit, they understand blogs. They understand that bloggers are often better sources of information than the traditional media outlets. For a good example, see Blogabouttown’s timeline of how the Thomas Pynchon story broke. It took a week for a few media outlets to catch up. Several weeks for others.

So, now it seems they are poised to hijack content, and drive it to their advertiser supported sites (no advertisements here, by the way). Ed Champion reports on this very subject.
