And, of course, now I feel like I'm making a case to design and build something that's adapted for collecting, corroborating, checking, and editing news during fast-moving events with mass attention and participation. Stack Exchange for journalism or something like that.
This point was raised during the reddit mess -- why doesn't something like this exist? Combine a feature like "twitter news" with a forum-style ui where anyone can input, then add some fact checkers. Force tv news like CNN to change a bit to stay abreast with the market, and we might have a new dawn of investigative news journalism.
