Honestly, I don't know as much about the economic crisis in the country as I should. Numbers, money and economics has never been my strong point by any means, but as a politics and journalism major I should probably make myself more informed.
This article caught my eye for several reasons. First, Warren Buffet is an extremely intelligent man with a lot of business savvy (obviously... he's the 2nd richest man in the country and worth over 50 billion dollars), plus, he was technically my boss at The Buffalo News because he owns it. So, when he has something to say about the economy, I will absolutely listen to it.
As far as the article itself goes, I think that it is a great example of online journalism. It was broken up into chunks which made it way easier to read. Plus, there were pictures, links to videos about how this could affect every day Americans, and links to other articles about this subject. The thing I like most about CNN's website (I read it a lot, especially considering Ithaca's cable is ridiculously expensive so I can't watch CNN... or ESPN... or really anything for that matter) is the "story highlights" feature at the top of the page. It makes getting the facts that much easier. I think I'll be using the links from this page to update myself on the situation.
