Any of you watch the The Daily Show with Jon Stewart? In the U.S., this Comedy Central program is a major source of "news" for people your age. No, Jon Stewart isn't a newsman. He's an actor and comedian. And, no, The Daily Show isn't a news show like ABC News, but it does offer up news commentary and interviews with major figures. Pervez Musharraf hawked his book on the show when he was Pakistani president. Take a look at this recent segment in which Stewart interviews Walter Isaacson, the former Time magazine managing editor, on "How to Save Your Newspaper." Then read what Isaacson wrote in a Time cover story of the same name.
Listen for the word "aggregator" in the interview. And, oh, by the way, both the video and the magazine article are free.
