Title: Re: Event Announcement: Branding Bitcoin in the Media - August 5, 2015 [ZapChain] Post by: gogxmagog on July 31, 2015, 08:49:38 PM thats excellent. WSJ has long been good at reporting on BTC fairly... the other (BTC-centric) outlets represented here are good, but kinds "niche" they stand to do pretty good once mass adoption is a thing, but for now they are pretty fringe.
what the average regular press needs to do is hire reporters who actually understand how BTC works and not let half-smart n00bs write their articles. A dedicated "BTC editor" would be all over these forums, reddit and traditional news gathering methods. They would have an active interest in BTC and cryptos, but would also have to remain objective. some of the articles that come out... you wonder what kind of fact-checking they do, if any.

Im sick and tired of all those news about how Bitcoin is nothing compared to the blockchain, as if somehow it could magically function without Bitcoin. They separate it often without understand the underlying mechanism that makes BTC and Blockchain like fuel to a car. When will these guys learn?

I signed up and it seems this started about 10 minutes ago, but I have still not received any email about it. |
