• Effects of Unresolved Factual Disputes in the News on Epistemic Political Efficacy – Pingree – 2011 – Journal of Communication – Wiley Online Library – "This experiment tests effects of passive, neutral reporting of contradictory factual claims on audiences. Exposure to such reporting is found to affect a new self-efficacy construct developed in this study called epistemic political efficacy (EPE), which taps confidence in one's own ability to determine truth in politics. Measurement of EPE is found to be reliable and valid, and effects of neutral reporting on it are found to be conditional on prior interest in the issues under dispute. Implications of this effect and of EPE are discussed. Self-efficacy theory (Bandura, 1982) suggests these short-term effects may accumulate over time. EPE may affect outcomes related to political understanding, opinion formation, and information seeking. " – (journalism ideology writing objectivity )
• App Store not invited to web’s date with destiny • The Register – Love El Reg. Rhis time they thwack the Copernicans who preach conversion to an App Universe over the web. Its about The Sharing. But in this case, it's about vendors having to push. "Yes, we're in a transition period where standalone apps make sense. But to believe that "it's an app internet" now and forevermore is crazy talk, and assumes that there's more value in isolation than in connections. In other words, that apps are better than the Internet. They're not. The isolated app model is fundamentally inferior to an open web of connected content and apps, one that is infinitely more shareable and more discoverable. Sure, there's going to be plenty of room for hybrid approaches to web/native apps, and that's healthy." – (en3177 produsage apps )
