Social media Case Study: Students go where journalists can’t

“Condi Rice’s Tor­tured Macaca Moment” via Per­sonal Democ­racy Forum.

Cool com­men­tary on a sim­ple ques­tion period with Con­doleeza Rice, Stan­ford stu­dents, and a video cam­era that result in main­stream media atten­tion, pub­lic contribution/clarification and infor­ma­tion that was all arguably unat­tain­able by reporters while her admin­is­tra­tion was in office.

The post ref­er­ences a Harper’s arti­cle by Scott Hor­ton that decon­structs Condi’s com­ments as well.
