– Mainstream media need new blood from other more entrepreneurial fields as well as a massive infusion of youth.
– Government funding is a very bad idea. We have to be capable of more creativity than that.
– Most media organizations still too often act as if they are in control.
– Traditional newspapers are profoundly troubled, but not necessarily doomed.
– Those who view an unorganized world full of citizen journalists as idyllic are smoking something. More »

Friends, I have nothing personal against author/blogger melcrossman3, who recently wrote an article that appears elsewhere as a "guest post". But I feel it is my sworn duty to steer you away from blog-nonsense!
Rumors about a Facebook smartphone began in 2010 (as did those regarding a "facebook sim card") - Facebook hasn’t had the best luck with mobile advertising attempts and now it appears the company may be hedging its mobile bets on a new Facebook smartphone (codename "BUFFY") that could be released by early 2013.

Some folks believe newspapers will cease to exist (along with the post office) in about 10 years. Hmmmm... Seriously, how long will the newspaper industry survive? Your guess is as good as the next guy or gal's. One way they WON'T survive is by restricting and/or charging for online content. I am blessed in that for me The New York Times and The Albany Times Union each are a mouseclick away. Sites that tell me "your free trial" is up, offer "pay per view" or display othersuch drivel, never see me again.
By the way, in a few minutes I'm off to the store to BUY copies of The Sunday New York Times, The Times Union and The NY Post. Weekend is the only time I can really "curl up" with and dive into mountains of newsprint!
There is another battle brewing, and this little litmus test going on in upstate New York could have bigger implications for both newspapers and the cottage newsblogging industry. As this has the potential to unfurl rather quickly, consider all the players and what's at stake. Like one of the old NWA pro-wrestling matches, you never know who might turn on who. So, pop a cool one, enjoy the Memorial Day holiday weekend, thank those soldiers, sailors and airmen who gave their lives so you could be bar-b-q'ing without fearing for your safety, and let's see what happens next.
Bloggers vs. Times Union vs. New York Times ::: a "cage match" pits citizen journalists against mighty metropolitan newspapers. The battle involves newspapermen, government officials, law enforcement authorities and others "in the public eye."Powered by Zoundry Raven

Hey look! Digresses: Martin Luther (10 November 1483 – 18 February 1546) was a German monk, priest, professor of theology and iconic figure of the Protestant Reformation. He kickstarted a revolution against the Roman Catholic Church, who at the time would raise large amounts of cash by allowing people to see relics, often unconfirmed pieces of history, such as Mary’s milk and the bones of disciples. He strongly disputed the claim that freedom from God's punishment for sin could be purchased with money. He confronted indulgence salesman Johann Tetzel with his Ninety-Five Theses, which he posted to the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg in 1517. His refusal to retract all of his writings at the demand of Pope Leo X in 1520 and the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Worms in 1521 resulted in his excommunication by the pope and condemnation as an outlaw by the Emperor.Now, back to our post:
It was a landslide victory for Luther, resulting in a complete change in the process of certain church activities that continue to this day. The people who associated with Luther’s ideas became known as Protestants, which is a form of the word “protestor”, as the people protested against the Catholic church’s systems.
The Basij Press claims that this particular version of the Barnabas Gospel seems to have been written in the 5th or 6th century. It foretells the coming of the Prophet Mohammad and the religion of Islam. Catholics call it laughable!
The Turkish army has confiscated the Barnabas Gospel, BP says, because Zionists and Western governments want it kept away from the public eye. The book purports to predict the coming of the last Islamic messiah.
Barnabas says in the Book that Jesus was never crucified and that not only is He not the son of God, but that He himself predicted the coming of the Prophet Mohammad. (That's an interesting take) The Basij paper proclaims that “...discovery of the original Barnabas Bible will now undermine the Christian Church and its authority ... this Bible has predicted the coming of Prophet Mohammad and in itself has verified the religion of Islam, and this alone will unbalance the powers of the world and create instability in the Christian world.”The report sees the discovery as so immense that it will impact world politics. I wonder. I can see it perhaps making a mark in the Middle East, but, everywhere else?
“The Iranian regime is committed to stamping out Christianity by any means necessary, whether that means executing Christian converts, burning Bibles or raiding underground churches,” according to Erick Stakelbeck, host of CBN’s “Stakelbeck on Terror” program. Stakelbeck keeps an eye on Iran, and muses that this "new Bible" is an attempt to discredit Christianity.
Grand Ayatollah Jafar Sobhani, in a recent statement, announced that since the Quran was the last holy book and provides the most complete religion to the world and Mohammad the last prophet as indicated in the Quran, there is no authority to abide by other books.

Netizens in Qatar have responded indignantly to an article published on the Sydney Morning Herald website, which claimed that Qatari women were not allowed to go shopping, and did not have easy access to technology.

A South African art gallery that displayed a controversial painting showing the country's president with his genitals exposed announced Tuesday it was closing its doors temporarily because of threats. The decision came after vandals defaced the artwork.
