Even the ailing newspaper industry is learning to adapt to the latest technological trends, as The Washington Post twittered Obama’s latest press conference today. With the press conference beginning around 12:30 pm, The Post’s Chris Cillizza reported and analyzed Obama’s remarks live, as the President delivered them. Recognizing the long-term durability of social media, coupled with the simultaneous decline of traditional media, many newspapers and television networks are begging to support, or at least tolerate, the new mantra: embrace social media or perish. Of the major news networks, CNN boasts the most visible and robust presence of social media. Every day, CNN anchors such as Don Lemon to Rick Sanchez monitor their Twitter page and report what Tweeters are saying about the day’s top headlines. From The Washington Post to CNN, the traditional news media are increasingly incorporating social media into their news coverage.
