So where do you go to read the latest news and heck even post comments to the journalist in real-time. Yeah no marks for guessing; Facebook has come out as the medium.

"The Associated Press is partnering with other news organizations to cover next week's climate talks in Copenhagen led by the United Nations, and has created a Facebook hub page where journalists covering the talks will post stories and interact with readers, posting blog items, leading live discussions, and taking suggestions on what they should cover during the conference. Around 200 countries are expected to attend to help come up with an international agreement for controlling emissions of gasses leading to global warming."


"This site is not aimed at replicating the traditional media coverage," the agencies say, "but... providing back stories and a forum for analysis and various points of view.
"All [the agencies] are committed to jointly providing a new model for collaborative journalism and reader engagement."
