Hey Twitter, Thanks for reminding me I’ll never find a job in 140 characters or less

Wanna know which experienced journalists were laid off today?…Yeah, I don’t really want to hear about it anymore either. But if you’re curious, check out Twitter’s new feed: The Media is Dying.

    aargh! I wish folks would stop b*&tching about our dying industry and invent a new one. All the energy spent on the former could’ve spawned the latter by now.

    I agree! I’m doing my best to stay optimistic.

    I guess “The Media is Dying” is benefitting off all this. Maybe the newly jobless journalists (who’s misfortunes are plastered on Twitter) should get together and start something new that competes with Twitter.
