Jarvis makes many interesting points in his post “The Press Becomes the Press Sphere.” he is saying that the ecosystem of the news is changing, and that it is not all about the press. The press is not the center of everything and the news does not depend on it. Jarvis states that we have to realize the new system in order to successfully come up with systems for the news. With the Internet, there are many factors that go into news stories. There are links, comments, sources, and many other things that impact the story continuously. He makes the comparison with print by saying that in print newspapers, you get a final product. You create the paper and that is your product. With online stories it is much different though because the process is the product. I think this is the main idea of the whole post. Stories online are always ongoing because there is always someone that could add to it or have a new idea about it. Instead of the press being at the center of everything, it is the stories that are at the center. Stories are constantly being changed, even by readers, who are becoming editors and distributors themselves. I think it is easy to see the changes that Jarvis is mentioning in our world today. The news is becoming so much more interactive and it is no longer just the press feeding people information. It is about people sharing information with each other and even adding their own inputs and opinions into it. There is a totally different format for the news than there used to be, and I think Jarvis explains that clearly.
