Interesting Relationships and Terrible Drawings

When you start to think about all the differences and similarities among The New York Times and blogs, you find that The New York Times tries to expand upon the news of a second ago. However, blogs such as Big Government and The Daily Dish are always trying to update the news with a bias. The writers of these blogs are always rewording the news in order that their readers can relate to what they are reading. People like to know the facts of the second when they go to the Ney York Times.

After you have sufficiently read the news, you will undoubtedly be drawn to certain articles. Maybe, you even care enough to do more research on your own. Thus you would turn to a blog. Say you are following the political implications surrounding ACORN. Would you not wish to read from the site in which ACORN is a constant topic? Of course you would; it would be understandable that you would go to Big Government.

But how do all of these things relate to the “press sphere?” Well, when you start to realize that you are drawn to certain issues, certain articles of the day, then you begin to see that you are the controller of the “press sphere.” Whereas, in the past, the ecology of news in relation to you was more readily viewed as a funnel in which you get everything poured through the funnel for you,

now, you can decide what comes out of the funnel because you are engineering what is going into it. Have fun with that.
