Terry, I may be missing the point and appreciate the opportunity to grok it. I think what you are saying is news for a paper medium is different from news for a computer displaying content in a browser. Where citations or references could be used on paper, but are not expected in news stories on paper, hyperlinks are expected in a news story on the web. Where video makes no sense for paper, it is required for TV, and optional for the web. Where I think we differ is I don't segregate the Internet with its myriad transport and presentation protocols from our "world of senses" that include the numerous other communication technologies we've accumulated since the 19th century that are also used to distribute the news. What I have used to understand their differences is visualizing the news process in layers and the infrastructural and structural biases of the presentation layer for human consumption. I agree with you that news for paper is *different* at the presentation layer than news for radio, television, email, SMS/IM, web, etc.

I’m not sure why I’m responding here, Tim. Perhaps it’s because I feel you’ve completely missed the point. The two are indeed different, for even the addition of source links or linkable references separates the two. Moreover, the ability to store parts or pieces eliminates the need for whole summaries, which is another huge difference. RSS is a delivery option thanks to the handshake, but because people like you think there’s no difference, RSS is only used to tease people for clicks, again, totally defeating its intended purpose.
