Flickr is the news — particularly its long, spikey tail. Here, Flickr user johndoe40 records the recent attack on the US embassy in Belgrade. Also note the Belgrade protestors staging a televised ‘fuck you’ by mooning at the mainstream media’s cameras. How long before we dispense with embedded news reporters altogether? Or are we just replacing the mass media’s agenda with that of the individual citizen journalist?
Source (typically): a blog (namely, Jezebel). We filter our news through our interests now; not the other way around.
UPDATE: more citizen journalism from Belgrade — two female looters are currently featured on YouTube.
