Comments on: Twitter and the Iraq Inquiry http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/twitter_and_the_iraq_inquiry/ Championing Independent Journalism Tue, 04 Sep 2012 14:49:10 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Onnik Krikorian http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/twitter_and_the_iraq_inquiry/#comment-707 Sun, 13 Dec 2009 13:10:14 +0000 http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/dev/?p=3107#comment-707 Great post, and especially your point about using tweets as journalistic notes. This is something I’ve started to do as well, albeit on a less serious scale, and plan to do more on in a week during field work on minority communities in Georgia.
In a sense, tweets have multiple uses. On one level they are real-time reporting, on another they offer transparency in many situations. This also could be seen to have a need when it comes to journalists working on a story before publication.
Maybe that’s not an need in the U.K., I don’t know. Been out so long now. However, for the Caucasus, I can really see one. Thanks again.
