Assignment:
What contribution do you think Facebook will make to news in the next 5 years? Are traditional news publishers losing control? Does Mark Zuckerberg have too much power? Or, is Facebook, Twitter and other platforms the digital age's answer to the printing press or TV transmitter as a means of distribution? (See Chapters on news in your book for references) Will the "snackable" nature of digital content lead to less news consumption or a greater awareness of what is happening in our world?
