Face book groups aim to ID rioters, help clean up





Face book groups aim to ID rioters, help clean up

This article was interesting to me because, we heard a lot about the riots on face book, and the charges being laid because of face book. What we didn’t hear about was the groups forming on face book trying to name rioters and setting up a group to help clean the city. Social media was supposed to help us get our stories out there, but you never hear about these “good” stories. Do you think we will have an emergence of “good” social media, or will the regular types of media just cut all the “good” out like they’re used too? I believe until the old sources of media such as TV/radio news are still around they will continue to pick and choose there stories and I don’t think many of them will be “happy”.
