I teach journalism at NYU, direct the Studio 20 program there, critique the press and try to grok new media. I don't do lifecasting but mindcasting on Twitter.

For some reason it's become acceptable for campaign journalists to admit to this bias http://t.co/KIL7tJVy and they're doing it all over.

The whole notion that a PR fiasco demands a PR solution is junk logic. So often the fiasco results from far deeper flaws in an organization.

Some of the jobs @studio20nyu grads have gotten since they finished in December. http://t.co/282DuOHn (This is half. Next week 4-5 more.)

They ran the numbers and @megangarber used them to come up with the Most Annoying Tweet Imaginable. http://t.co/BlmP2tRd

Is the Susan G. Komen Foundation backing down? @ezraklein asks. http://t.co/jTA7puvJ I love this part: "Our statement speaks for itself."

I was going to write about that excruciating interview on MSNBC with the head of Susan G. Komen, but with today's news maybe it's all moot.

Canadian government fakes a citizenship oath ceremony (by using its own employees) so that Sun Media can cover it. http://t.co/3RB6eg7e

The most original idea a political journalist has had in the 2012 cycle: Frank Rich on why Romney cannot connect. http://t.co/DrtgwFhN

Welcome, Mandy! Quoting @mjenkins : "I'm shaking the rust off my local news know-hows and joining Digital First Media." http://t.co/7OZ8EAuP

In reply to several, what I meant by "brutal" is that Brinker was unprepared, incoherent, zombie-like and completely unequal to the moment.

I think the pros in crisis communication will be talking about Andrea Mitchell's interview with Amb. Nancy Brinker for many, many years.

Absolutely brutal interview with Andrea Mitchell and the head of Susan G. Komen http://t.co/ib4hDHt8 Rarely seen anything like it.

Find out what it means to "root for the story," not for the team, party, sect or candidate http://t.co/smJ0IBGX

If you have a culture of lying at a firm like Murdoch's the scandal will spread because each "event" leads to more lying. And more scandal.

It's got women. Health. The Left. The Right. Election year. Culture war. Money. Passion. Real consequences. Everything! http://t.co/pyHSsF8z

If I'm an editor I'm shouting at my newsroom today, "Dammit, get me on top of this Susan G Komen story!!!" http://t.co/NHYDLjr3

What I heard about Patch: Freelance budgets mostly gone. Editors told to move to the HuffPost model. More re-purposing of news across sites.

Murdoch's Management and Standards Committee "appears to be taking its job more seriously than many of the journalists expected." Priceless.
jayrosen_nyu
At Murdoch's Sun, cries of betrayal. They expected the standard News Corp cover-up; instead the company exposed them. http://t.co/HnsrbcYS

(If it wasn't pulled out of its context, it wouldn't be a quote at all. It would be the context. You know what I'm saying?)

There's a nice little PhD dissertation in the "expectations game," a twisty form of news in politics, markets, sports http://t.co/BAtb6AKk
