Wired.com just did a piece on the Twitter response to the tragedy that just happened during the Boston Marathon.
Every now and again, we hear that social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.) is replacing 'real' news media as sources of information. While we love social media, it's still way too soon to discount the journalists and editors that are looking to report facts vs. those quick with the keystrokes looking to simply report or be heard.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Boston and all those affected in the attack.
