Recession Impact

I bought a ball-point pen for my use yesterday... very long time has passed since I did last time. The company I work for usually provided before, but recently they stopped to do many supports. They said that was a part of cost reduction. And it is a usual thing to buy stationary for my use including work. Clear and clean policy. I mean, I should not be a free-rider anymore.

What media have reported, and what media have not

Recently, the discussion on the old media's future is getting a hot issue here. People tend to talk about how the Internet has changed the view on news reporting.

One critic's comments was very impressive for me. He said, the Internet has revealed what the media have covered and what they have not reported. I think that's true. Media choose topics and never report until the things were confirmed as truth. Some information on the Net seem unclear whether they are true. But it is okay for readers because they do not expect it. It seems that people are smart enough to judge the fact's value with collecting much information through old media and the Internet.

So where the old media should go?
