MediaShift Idea Lab . The Most Innovative Digital Coverage of Superstorm #Sandy | PBS: First up: natural disaster reporting thanks to Superstorm Sandy.
Disasters bring out many of the most predictable cliches of traditional media (reporters standing in the middle of a storm surge, photos of empty store shelves, and worse), but they also lead to some of the best and most impactful work by journalists, computer programmers, and online services. Sandy broke all the records as one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast, and I think history will also show it to be groundbreaking in the way it was covered online.
