The Best Worst Job in the World

The Best Worst Job in the World: http://bit.ly/4EGqmt Our senior editor has not had a "regular job" in several months - due to several issues. And disqualified for UI benefits, his single source of income is the $ 7.71 he's gathered in revenue on AdSense. (Of course, Google doesn't pay until you hit the $100 milepost, and then there's fees and all that. That's why he calls this the best worst job in the world. We just tell him he's mildly retarded...

Sacrificialism

Sacrificialism: The sad but important portmanteau of sacrifice and journalism. Apparently researched in depth and at great risk by the great expository journalist Terry Gould. Mr. Gould made a recent appearance on Book TV discussing his great work Marked for Death (American Title) before the CPJ. Mr. Gould discussed the international problem of local journalists facing death threats and dying for their reporting on corrupt regimes in such places as; the Phillipines, Colombia, Irag, Russia... Mr. Gould's dialogue boiled down to the essential fact that local journalists were/are sacrificing their own lives in order to inspire others to pick up their fight against corruption through reporting.

Tweality




Tweality: http://bit.ly/2L2DI7 The fortunate (?) portmanteau of tweet and reality. The 'expansion' of one's reality via one's experience with a larger mass of consciousness on Twitter or other form of collective medium. In other words, its not about all those talking heads on the tube or talk radio!
