The news in Technology

Technology has has a huge change in how we get our news and how fast we get our news.  Before the advances in technology we received news in one of two ways, newspaper and television news.  With the newspaper we got the news the next day and with television we got the news the same day if it happened early enough to make it to the newscasts.  With the advancements we now receive our news immediately if not sooner.  We now get up to date news via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram no matter where we are we are connected.  While this seems like a great thing to be able to get the news immediately it can also be a bad thing.  Take the case of TMZ releasing the news of the death of Kobe Bryant's death before his family was notified.  For his family to receive the news at the same time as the general public was inexcusable to have happen.
