Cambridge, Mass. IT is well known that when like-minded people get together, they tend to end up thinking a more extreme version of what they thought before they started to talk. The same kind of echo-chamber effect can happen as people get news from various media. Liberals viewing MSNBC or reading left-of-center blogs may well end up embracing liberal talking points even more firmly; conservative
The New York Times won two Pulitzer Prizes on Monday for its reporting on Africa and for an investigative series on loopholes that allow the wealthiest Americans and corporations to avoid paying taxes. In a sign of the changing media landscape, two primarily online news outlets, The Huffington Post and Politico, won their first Pulitzer Prizes. Also notable this year was the absence of prizes in t
The Daily Mail has 4.5 million readers. One editor says, “The paper’s defining ideology is that Britain has gone to the dogs.”Illustration by Harry Campbell On Thursday, January 19th, the front page of the Daily Mail carried a story about Sir Fred Goodwin, the former chief executive of the Royal Bank of Scotland. During Goodwin’s tenure, from 2000 to 2008, R.B.S. quadrupled its assets, became the
アパラチコラで過ごす優雅な時間 メキシコ湾沿いの入り江に面した米フロリダ州の小さな町アパラチコラ。こじんまりした海辺のホテルに宿泊し、バーで新鮮なシーフードを味わえるほか、地ビールの醸造所もある。綿花や漁業で栄えたこの町には、グリークリバイバル(ギリシャ建築への回帰)様式の優雅な住宅が散見される。数キロの沖合に浮かぶセントジョージ島には白い砂浜が広がる。

I hadn’t — too busy looking at Prince William and K
東日本大震災で被災した「石巻日日(ひび)新聞」(宮城県石巻市)が震災直後、フェルトペンの手書きで発行を続け避難所などに張り出した壁新聞を、米ワシントンの報道博物館「ニュージアム」が譲り受け、展示に加えることになった。同博物館が14日までに明らかにした。 同紙は1912年創刊で、夕刊1万4000部を発行。武内宏之常務・報道部長(53)によると、停電と浸水で編集、印刷設備が使えなくなったが、無事だったロール紙を切り取り、社員が「日本最大級の地震・大津波」などの見出しで記事を書いた。被災した夜にろうそくの明かりの下で「ペンと紙があれば伝えられる。壁新聞で行こう」と話し合った。壁新聞は電気の復旧まで6日間、6カ所に張り出された。 これを米紙が報道し、博物館が寄贈を要請。武内部長は「私たちは地元密着の新聞。復興は長丁場になる。地域の人々と一緒に苦しみ、悩み、希望を見いだしたい」と話した。(共同)

Donald Rumsfeld demonised it and George Bush allegedly said he wanted to bomb it. No one was quite sure whether the then White House incumbent was joking or not, but its offices have been hit by US forces. Twice. Now something rather strange has begun to happen to the Arabic language news broadcaster al-Jazeera and the English language channel it launched nearly five years ago; American viewers ha
