The document discusses who deserves to be believed in online media. It suggests that bloggers may deserve to be believed due to their niche expertise and transparency. Websites provided by non-profit organizations or institutions also may deserve belief because they release news more objectively. Additionally, websites with strict monitoring mechanisms that can delete incorrect news may deserve to be believed. Determining who deserves trust in online media is important as more people receive news that way.

How to Like Social Media Network SecurityBrian Honan
This is my presentation from Source Dublin 2014 on cyber crime and social media.
Social media networks provide individuals and businesses with exciting opportunities to communicate and collaborate with others throughout the world. But with these opportunities come a number of security challenges and risks. This talk will outline how social media networks can pose various threats to businesses, from information leakage, reputational damage, to social engineering profiling, and vectors for enabling compromise of corporate systems. Social media networks also enable the rapid dissemination of news which in the event of an information security breach could either save or destroy an organisations reputation. Understanding and dealing with these challenges will enable companies to like and favourite social media networks in a secure way.
Social Media is becoming commonplace in our society, both at work and at home. It's responsible for a major paradigm shift in how we communicate with each other. This presentation addresses that shift and discusses how our privacy is being eroded as a result and what you can do about it.

From the 2010 Texas School Public Relations Association (TSPRA) Conference in Austin, TX
"The rapidly changing communication landscape presents numerous challenges for PR professionals. Organizations depending on traditional media outlets to be the main and preferred communication channel to reach and influence audiences are often finding it harder to have their stories expand their reach with shrinking newsrooms.
PR pros must be adept at effectively integrating and managing the communication channels at their disposal. These new challenges provide us with new and exciting ways to leverage traditional PR techniques along with social media skills to help our organizations and clients remain visible and connected with key audiences."
The aftermath of the Boston marathon bombings showed social media at its best in providing quick, timely information as well as at its worst in helping to feed rumours and misinformation. It also caught a number of brands out who had scheduled, but failed to stop, promotional tweets.
In a talk at the 'Housing Goes Digital' conference, Rabbit's head of content Jim Shaughnessy used Boston and other major news events to show how the Internet has changed the way we consume news, and also how news stories are shaped.
The presentation then goes to show how real-time news leads to real-time marketing, and what this means for brands.

356 Chapter 7 Evaluating and Controlling Technology
In this chapter, we consider such questions as these: Does the openness and
"democracy" of the Web increase distribution of useful information or of inac
curate, foohsh, and biased information? How should we handle the latter? How
can we evaluate complex computer models of physical and social phenomena?
Is computing technology evil? Why do some people think it is? How does access
to digital technology ditfer among dilferent populations? How should we control
technology to ensure positive uses and consequences? How soon will robots and
digital devices be more intelligent than people? What will happen after that?
Whole books focus on these topics. The presentations here are necessarily
brief. They introduce issues, arguments, and many questions.

A little learning is a dang 'rous thing;
Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring;
There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.

7.1.1 The Need for Responsible Judgment
What is real? What is fake? Why does it matter?
We can get the wrong answer to a question quicker than our fathers and
mothers could find a pencil.
—Robert McHenry^
There is a daunting amount of information on the Web—^and much of it is wrong.
Quack medical cures abound. Distorted history, errors, outdated information, bad
financial advice—it is all there. Marketers and pubUc relations firms spread unlabeled
advertisements through blogs, social media, and video sites. Search engines have
largely replaced librarians for finding information, but search engines rank informa
tion sources at least partially by popularity and give prominent display to content
providers who pay; librarians do not. Wikipedia, the biggest online encyclopedia, is
immensely popular, but can we rely on its accuracy and objectivity when anyone can
edit any article at any time? On social journalism sites, readers submit and vote on
news stories. Is this a good way to get news? The nature of the Intemet encourages
people to post their immediate thoughts and reactions without taking time for con
templation or for checking facts. How do we know what is worth reading in contexts
where there are no editors selecting well-written and well-researched articles?
Faking photos is not new; photographers have long staged scenes and altered
photos in dark rooms. When we see a video of a currently popular performer sing

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

4. The last few decades, the world has witnessed
the soaring development of information
technology, which gave rise to the creation of
the Internet in the mid 1990s . As the Internet is
prevalently used by an increasing number of
individuals, online media has become the
mainstream press in contemporary society .

5. 1. By the end of September 2009, there are more
than 1.7 billion people using the internet.
2. Compared with the data in 2008, Internet users
increased 18% in the end of September 2009.

6. It is undeniable that an increasing number of
people tend to receive news via online media.
But in the meantime……
Whether the news in online media can be
believed has sparked much debate.
7. Some people start to suspect the
authenticity of the news in online media.
Some of them even begin to doubt the
news from major “brand name” web
sites such as New York Times, NPR, the
Los Angeles Times, etc.

9. 1 Bloggers may deserve to be believed
in online media.
Reasons: Niche expertise. bloggers can be experts with a deep
knowledge about a topic like open-source software or micro-
biology.
Transparency in motives. Bloggers have greater freedom
to speak from the heart and use a personal voice whereas
most journalists are constrained by an institutional objectivity.
Transparency in process. Bloggers link to documents,
sources and supporting evidence to buttress their own
authority.
Forthrightness about mistakes. When bloggers err, the
credible ones publish a mea culpa and take responsibility,
with the corrected information alongside their original posting.

10. 2 The websites which are provided by
non-profit organizations or institutions
may deserve to be believed.
Example: The website such as .org and . edu, may deserve to be
believed rather than the website such as .com and . net .
Reasons: The website such as .org and . edu are always offered
by research organizations or educational institutions
which release news more objectively while the website
such as .com and. net. are provided by commercial
organizations which usually release news driven by
their profits; therefore, the news lack the authenticity.

12. 3
The websites which have strictly
monitoring mechanisms may deserve
to be believed.
Reasons: Monitoring mechanisms can supervise the content of
the news. Also, web site administrators can delete or
correct error news immediately thereby controlling the
dissemination of pseudo events .
Example: ABC

The website which provided by ABC may deserve to be believed,
because ABC has strictly monitoring mechanisms.
