I recently read about a startup called Newsy. Located in Columbia, MO - right across the street from Mizzou's School of Journalism - Newsy is the brainchild of Jim Spencer, a Mizzou alum and a former exec at AOL, NBC and AskJeeves. Most would call it a news aggregator in video form, but Newsy would prefer to be dubbed a news "analyzer." It attemps to address our frustrations with the possible biases of a single news source by painting the whole story with a number of different brushes. The folks at Newsy splice and dice video clips from multiple sources across the political spectrum and put it all together. Instead of flipping back and forth between FOX News and MSNBC, why not watch a condensed version of both? As a friend of mine might say, "Not too shabbs!" Take a look.....
While this is supposed to be a golf blog, I have to post something that was tangentially related to golf....Cougar was the best I could do.
Multisource political news, world news, and entertainment news analysis by Newsy.com
Why would anybody discriminate against cougars?
