Citizen journalism, front and center
Written by Chelsey Delaney | Posted in UncategorizedAlthough today’s Digital Journal top story was about Miley Cyrus and some alleged incriminating photos, I don’t expect a site labeling itself with a motto of “The Power of Citizen Journalism” to have breaking news that the mainstream hadn’t already toyed with and cast aside.
The point is, they’re trying. Most of the “citizen journalists” are anonymous and have cool superhero nicknames. The site also has a TV segment.
Regardless of the fact that the news is only filtering in from NYC and LA, most of it’s pertinent to you and I.
EXCEPT for Miley Cyrus. I don’t even know who she is, but I’m sure she’s been on a tabloid for an eating disorder at some point, am I right?
