Truemors and NowPublic brings news full circle

Picked up this nice news yesterday—NowPublic Acquires Truemors—which not only makes Guy happy I’m sure, but I think it adds a nice and interesting facet to NowPublic.

NowPublic is fantastic for expanding local coverage of news and giving people the chance to give their spin on it.

Truemors, of course, is more for those rumours that we’d all like to read.

Together? I think you get the best of both worlds.

Is the media now solely in our hands?  Will the print, radio, and TV worlds be just analyzing what we’re saying?

Yeah, not likely. I think that the MSM is still going to be essential to do the digging that they do so well. That said, I think social media/new media/new journalism is going to be playing a more and more important role in how everyone consumes the news.
