…creating a channel or program for the sake of gaining “eyeballs” for later “leverage” during a crisis like this is irresponsible. Current media methods, tactics, and practices have been influenced by what has worked to get eyeballs in the past. It’s irritating that the methods don’t change during a crisis. It’s the same pattern. The same words. The same stories that evoke emotion…

Agreed. Very well said.

We followed you on Twitter during the fires. Thank you for updating us and the time you put into this. Best of luck.

Thanks! I’m excited to be there. It should be a good time, and I’m looking forward to the dialogue (yes I spell it like the English do, it’s much prettier).

Awesome! I was glad to see you on the list of people attending and double excited to see that there’s to be a presentation about this.

Agree that you are a definite poster-boy for this topic.

If you follow some of the links in my October 31 post on my blog (at the http://mrontemp.blogspot.com/2007/10/more-on-mass-coverage-of-last-nights.html URL), you can perhaps cite a second example – coverage of the October 30 earthquake in northern California.
