Do you follow the evolution of the situation in Fukushima nuclear power plant? I do, and it happens I know a bit about nuclear power plants and nuclear safety. So basically, as in any field where you happen to know a bit more than average, I am frustrated by the approximations of conventional media.
So, I was looking for the best source of information for me – not just high level plain-vanilla information but accurate and detailed information to allow me to understand what was happening.
I found it.
It’s not CNN or any of the television news networks.
It’s not the International Herald Tribune or any of the newspaper web sites.
It’s Wikipedia. The Fukushima 1 article is up-to-date as quickly as the professional media and much, much more precise and detailed.
The power of the Fourth Revolution in action: the collaborative enterprise of amateurs beats the professional news.
When do you start looking at Wikipedia and other collaborative news sites for a better information coverage?
