I hope something good for Dorian Nakamoto comes out of this whole nonsense because he's obviously a guy whose seen better times. Everyone at Newsweek needs to quit and go find a real job because their entire existence only made sense before Digg and Reddit came into existence. There's no journalism there, it's just the thing you flip through for the most attention-grabbing bits.
- jgalt212 12y agoEasy on the grave dancing, buddy. Didn't Reddit's citizen journalists accuse the wrong people for the Boston Marathon bombing? http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2013/04/25/boston-bombing-social-media-student-brown-university-reddit/2112309/ http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2013/04/25/boston-bombing... Surely, this a is sin greater than whatever Newsweek may have committed.
- cbd1984 12y agoYes, out of a few million users, a few committed bad acts. Who the Hell could possibly have seen that coming?
- jgalt212 12y agoThe point is not that there are a few bad apples out there, but that Reddit (and other crowd sourced media) have limited ability to police/prevent such actors and their actions. I posit that the editors of Newsweek and other assorted old media have more control over their reporters both before and after the story is published.
- dasil003 12y agoWait, where did I praise Reddit for their journalism? The entire slam against Newsweek was to liken it to Reddit, so you're just affirming my point.
- ertdfgcb 12y agoYeah but that's most national mainstream news sources. I just hope they learn from their mistake.
