Headline, abstract and URL edits to NYT are tracked by @nyt_diff on Twitter, it can be very interesting to see: https://twitter.com/nyt_diff https://twitter.com/nyt_diff Not sure if they only catch front page article changes or what. Newspaper article content is a big game that’s worth tracking, but what’s more difficult (probably nearly impossible right now) is local television news. Tons of news is pushed through to a wide audience and then it’s gone as quickly as it came with any damage due to errors or omissions being done instantly and probably permanently.

The Internet Archive captures both television and radio news, though obviously it's only a fraction of the total. https://archive.org/details/tv https://archive.org/details/tv and https://archive.org/details/radio https://archive.org/details/radio

That looks like a great follow, thanks. Speaking of Twitter, their "trending" section introduces yet another level of possible editorializing/bias. They have started to try and summarize trending topics in a digestible way, but this introduces the perceived authority of their interpretation. I haven't seen anything particularly egregious on their part, but it's definitely something to be aware of.

Seems weird that every post is in image. Yes changelogs with text would be challenging, but you can't search/etc images.

  Because Twitter sucks and let you post lots of text in images but not in text. It's awful.

    Also no rich text so it would be difficult to indicate what text was removed, added and unchanged in a readable format without the image.
