2. There was a time
when people
received their
news from a
newspaper…

3. Next came the
Television…

4. And last but
certainly not
least came…
The Internet and
the Smartphone

5. Here, information
was obtained
through various
websites and
search engines

6. You thought that would
be it?

7. Guess Again…

8. Today we obtain
information from…

9. Social Media Platforms
Offer the fastest and most
effective way for sharing
information with your
fans, followers and other
businesses in real time.

10. This day and age
people are severely
consumed with digital
media

15. What does
that mean for
news
outlets?

16. News outlets are
under pressure to find
more and more news
worthy stories each
day to meet the
demands of these
social media users

17. Because of this, we
have to also question
the reliability of the
source.

18. With that being said,
Here’s my question…

19. Is it ethical for the
media to make
everything available for
the public eye?

20. OR…

21. Should something’s
remain private?

22. I believe that
certain things
should remain
private.

23. The media is getting
to carried away with
what they are
disclosing

24. What it can’t
forget is…

25. Once you post
something to social
media, you can’t
take it back…

26. It becomes
VIRAL!

27. Recently in the
news, there was a
similar issue.

28. On May 2nd 2012…
Hours before the official
announcement that
President Barack Obama
had landed in Kabul,
Afghanistan, for a surprise
visit, the media -- both
social and electronic --
were already buzzing with
reports about the trip.

29. “Had he indeed
landed in-country?
Was it just a
rumor? Should it
be reported
anyway?”

30. Let the tweeting
begin…

31. @TOLOnews
"BREAKING: United
States President
Barack Obama has
arrived in Kabul to
meet Afghan
President Hamid
Karzai."

32. Joshua Hersh of the
Huffington Post…
@joshuahersh "Is this right?RT
@TOLOnews BREAKING:
United States President Barack
Obama has arrived in Kabul to
meet Afghan president Hamid
Karzai"

33. @USEmbassyKabul
"Reports that
President Obama is
in Kabul are false."

34. That was enough to
send the Twitterverse
and traditional media
buzzing. The New York
Post posted a story on
its website shortly after.

35. "Obama arrives in
Afghanistan report says;
White House denies it,"
read the Post's headline

36. Where is Obama,"
"
read a similar
headline on The
Drudge Report.

37. All of this
occurred in only
1 hour.

38. Is it the people
who crave the
need to know all
this information?

39. OR…

40. Does the media
force us to crave
more
information?

42. What is your
opinion?
