For those of you in the DC area, we're hosting this briefing that you might be interested in: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NDIIPP Briefing: NewsDiffs-Tracking Online News Over Time Date: Thursday, February 20, 2014 Time: 11:00 a.m. Place: Pickford Theater, 3rd Floor, James Madison Building, Library of Congress Contact: Barrie Howard, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>, 7-1830 The Internet has ushered in a 24-hour news cycle, and newspapers often hastily publish articles. While print editions run once, several subsequent versions can be published online. Many changes are innocuous, but significant edits can happen without a record of any changes. This briefing on NewsDiffs, http://www.newsdiffs.org/, the go-to site for referencing and tracking silent changes to online articles, will discuss example changes and the research opportunity presented by its trove of data. Since 2012, the site has been archiving hundreds of thousands of online news articles from many major sources.
