Social Media and Journalism

I found an article on BBC News concerning the effects of social media on new reporting (link). The article concluded that social media keeps corporations and individuals honest by making many of their behaviors and opinions transparent to the world. The argument was framed as such,

p1. Social media shines light on everything we do.
p2. Those who abandon core values and aspirations will be discovered through the relentless examination of social media.
c. Social media keeps everyone honest.

First Post: About me!

Time for the obligatory "about me" post. I'm Dan, I suppose I'm a little older than your average college student, I decided to spend a good 8 years working menial low paying jobs before FINALLY getting it together and going back to school. I spend most of my free time either gaming, hanging out, or watching movies. Though during the school year most of those things take a big cut. Oh I'm also a "townie" born and raised in North Adams and Clarksburg.
