So I logged onto the Twitter website to check trending topics to see what was happening. Much to my surprise, "RIP Adele" was trending. I checked my news outlet sources on my Tweetdeck to see if there was any report on this. Nothing. Twitter had decided to kill someone and this time it was Adele.

If anybody would be surprised at the RIP Adele news, it would be Adele who probably logged onto the internet to find out that she died.

The internet is moving at an extremely fast past. If your name gets to Twitter trending topics, you're automatically news. That goes for the same for "false news".

News outlets use Twitter to send out news which is great for someone like me who "lives" on the internet. I follow a lot of news people/outlets on Twitter and I find it great to get news instantly. The problem is some news outlets sometimes rush to break news and get the facts wrong.

Joe Paterno, the infamous Penn St coach, was on his death bed and would eventually pass away. Unfortunately, some people couldn't wait to break the story and hit the "Post" button too early. Joe Paterno was declared dead on Twitter before he died. CBS news got the story from a small news outlet and tweeted it out to the world. The reps from Joe Paterno's family rushed and denied the report.

It wasn't good for that small news outlet and CBS as CBS fired a member of their staff and the editor of the small news outlet stepped down.

Even on television, the quality of journalism is deteriorating. The phrase "Breaking News" has become nothing more than an attention grabber rather actual Breaking News. Real journalism has been pushed out of the way for ratings. Instead of great story pieces, we instead get talking heads in boxes giving their thoughts on what they liked about a politician's speech or a celebrities' dress. It's all largely devoid of "news" and it's rather all for entertainment.

Its hard to get real news and facts. Television News is obsolete to me. The internet does a better job for me. It's not always accurate and sometimes it's damn wrong. But at the least the information is available to the user and they can instantly check the facts and find it if they are real or not.

Believe me, the internet doesn't get a pass for giving out useless information sometimes (Katy Perry unfollowing Russel Brand on Twitter is not news) but the best thing about it is that I have options and can choose to ignore it.

Journalism is dead. Newspaper are gone and buried. The internet is the place to be. Long live the internet.
