Framing Post

1. How much longer do we have until News sources are primarily using tools like Twitter or other web devices to dispense their information. The talk about news revenue being down is definite cause for concern for the major networks. Is there a more fiscally responsible way to get the word out about breaking news and other updates?

2. Even if more news sites begin going to some type of a subscription service, will people still go where it’s free? What if the information on those free sites is more opinion. Do people value credibility enough to continue their subscriptions?

3. Even though citizen journalism has about half the amount of new news as the select sites in the shown graph, do people care about the newness of their information enough to pay? It would be interesting to see how long it takes the select sites to get news stories after it is no longer the day of the breaking news, compared to citizen sites.
