Proof of what we've all suspected. If people are following you, they care.
Quote: The study of over 1500 consumers by market research firm Chadwick Martin Bailey and iModerate Research Technologies found that 60% of Facebook fans and 79% of Twitter followers are more likely to recommend those brands since becoming a fan or follower. And an impressive 51% of Facebook fans and 67% of Twitter followers are more likely to buy the brands they follow or are a fan of. Added: March 12, 2010 at 11:45AM EST

Yea… sure, tell people they can’t be social. That’ll work. Especially if they’re rich celebrities.

As if the LAT redesign wasn’t ugly enough, they go and publish this: a declaration that the newspaper business is sacred, and a call for a congress to intervene on behalf of the fourth estate.
"If the 1st Amendment is to mean anything, Congress has to suspend antitrust rules for the newspaper industry so publishers can determine as a group how much to charge for online content."
…just… wow. The arrogance. Oh the arrogance.

0_o really!? a) do they think they can actually enforce this? b) I'm pretty sure this blocks some freedom of speech law or something, c) Sorta saw this coming from the NCAA – they've tried to limit what journos can live blog before too, d) better idea: allow all the fan's tweets to show up on a big screen – use them as marketing to sell more tickets!

Silliness. The logic goes something like this: we must continue to have newspapers so we must find a way to pay for them. Folks, that is flawed logic! Newspapers do not need to exists. Journalism does. Don't confuse the two.

a) what presidential commission has actually "focused the public's attention!?"
b) journalism doesn't need to be saved!
c) don't give _another_ industry a bailout
d) keep the government off my watchdog journalists please
e) How in bed with the government is the beltway media? The level of shame a journalist should feel for crawling to the government for help should invoke thoughts of ritual suicide.

ESPN has not only ended transparency, they've effectively shut down their presence on social media until they build an automated solution!? How is this better? Haven't we learned that the personal touch is better/works?

- TimOBrienNYT: . @jeffjarvis @alansmurray linking is not an "economy" in any sense. It's an information distribution network.

It'd be really nice if newspaper folks would stop to consider points of view that might seems radical, but are being advocated by so many smart peers.
Linking is a way to distribute information, and therefore a basis for an economy, unless you're trying to argue that newspapers have never distributed information before?
