Debate changed from "what is real news" to what parts of the news story qualified as "Breaking News".
September was the first month where the feedback and comments to this site were not focused on the usual broad arguments and challenges of trying to define real news. All the sources we cover gave the Wall Street crisis, and by extension the economic crisis, the kind of coverage that most of our readers seemed to think the story warranted.
For those of you keeping track it was The New York Times (no surprise) that sent out the most alerts in September about the economic crisis.
To check or compare how the story was covered simply click on the individual source in the top right corner of our page to see a complete list of all alerts as sent out, in order, from each of the news services we cover.
Bring on October....... |

| louis vuitton: Jun 7 2010, 5:26 AM Schiavi says there is still Louis Vuitton Handbagsa massive gap for plus-size women who want to look fashionable."It really irks me ... when designers go out there and say 'yes we are behind plus size' and yet their collections are never made for a Louis Vuitton Bagslarge size, it's really a double standard," Schiavi says.Due to launch in the USLouis Vuitton Purses this September, Schiavi won the international Biggest Loser deal partly because of his track record, whichEvening Dresses includes the "Dr Rey Shapewear" collection and the Peter Morrissey Big W range which is designed to include plus sizes.The 40-year-old fashion veteran alsoFlower Girl Dresses insists on booking voluptuous models to showcase his ranges. He says women should be empowered by fashion no matter what their size.

| bobby: Oct 2 2008, 8:35 PM Looks like Smith was right. I just got an e-mail from CBS that is simply an ad for their upcoming coverage of the VP debate. That's not news , let alone breaking news.

| Yankees: Oct 2 2008, 5:52 PM "Bloomberg Says He Would Run Again if Law Changed" - as Breaking News - you have to be kidding. NYT - this is not breaking news - even to us New Yorkers

| Dale R: Oct 1 2008, 9:45 PM So much coverage - and so many e mails about the first bail out bill and yet the second one just passed and so far seems to be getting little coverage. What's going on?
Why is the one that failed bigger news than the one that passed

| DanM: Oct 1 2008, 6:36 PM I see that as of 6:00pm here on the east coast that there have been no economy related alerts.
Thank God - I was getting a little tired of the beeping from my Blackberry telling me how much money I was losing.
Maybe we all need some soft news for a couple of days.
