How real people are finally being heard, I personally like this tagline.
Do check out this Edelman document, in particular page 4 where I got this extract below.
“When the world’s largest natural disaster took place in late 2004 in remote Southern Asia, bloggers in Thailand, Indonesia, India and other affected countries quickly jumped into action (e.g., http://tsunamihelp.blogspot.com/) to provide some of the fi rst on-the-scene “reporting,” including casualty reports, videos of the damage, heart-breaking photographs, government updates, links to relief agencies, lists of missing persons and victims, hospital reports and more. This shift from appointment-driven news consumption to on-demand news consumption is altering the news media landscape.”
