Facebook Asks Reporters to Sign Non-Disclosure Agreement

shitreporterssay.JPGReporters at a Facebook news conference in Seattle were asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement, according to reports coming from local news outlets. Did the company go too far? Read the full story at 10,000 Words.

@mskerryd Happens at SF tech events too. I just say No.

@j_nb The irony: Company that wants users to share everything doesn't want to share with reporters

@mtwelves I like Google more.

@coldfusion11 Seems Odd. 'open' Privacy (free press) is good for everyone except FB? I do agree about the 'spam' part.

PatBuchanan100x100.jpgBill O'Reilly Defends MSNBC's Right To Fire Pat Buchanan (Mediaite)
Thursday night, The Factor's Bill O'Reilly reported on how "the very liberal MSNBC network" has taken Pat Buchanan off the air because of opinions espoused of his book, Suicide of a Superpower, particularly where the issues of religion and immigration are concerned. Buchanan had previously denied being suspended from the network, explaining his absence as a medical leave.

Aggregation Is Deep In Journalism's DNA (Nieman Journalism Lab)
Below are a few quotes. Can you guess when each was written, and to what they refer? "Just what I want to read and just what I have time to read." "It enables one to keep abreast of the times without wasting a lot of time reading a whole column to obtain a single fact." Sounds a bit like an online aggregator, doesn't it, pulling a few salient points from much longer work? One more: "Your magazine is concise and to the point. It represents five good magazines in one." These are, in fact, a series of subscriber comments sent to Time magazine in the weeks following its launch March 3, 1923.

The Economist Adds 'China' Section, First Single-Country Addition In 70 Years (FishbowlNY)
