Slide 9:

News is New The news has always been changing, and always changed society

Slide 10:

Pheidippides 1 st Persian War Started 492 BC, ended 490 One of the first news media

Slide 11:

Whose run from Marathon to Athens to announce victory (or we think from Marathon to Athens)…is still remembered today

Slide 12:

You have to say he had balls:

You have to say he had balls http:// http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/ancient_greeks/greeks_at_war/teachers_resources.shtml Victory! He arrived in Athens he announced “Victory”…but of course he said it in Greek

You have to say he had balls:

You have to say he had balls http:// http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/ancient_greeks/greeks_at_war/teachers_resources.shtml Nike! NIKE!

You have to say he had balls:

You have to say he had balls http:// http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/ancient_greeks/greeks_at_war/teachers_resources.shtml Nike! And collapsed dead…with a swoosh!

Slide 16:

Of course maps in those days were far from detailed

Slide 17:

Athens Marathon Google Maps would have made it so much easier for Pheidippides

Slide 18:

Athens Marathon Of course Google maps doesn’t have “running” directions, only walking…but watch out for the missing sidewalk, and tuck some coins in the loincloth for the tolls

Slide 19:

Athens Marathon Sparta Some say that he actually went from Athens to Sparta, in which case Google Maps recommends the ferry…and marathons would be boat races

Slide 20:

If he’d had the full digital technology, reporting the news would save a lot of effort

Slide 21:

Slide 24:

As the Cambodians & Thais know, the French were never good at drawing maps

Slide 25:

Slide 26:

http://www.ethanzuckerman.com/blog/2008/01/23/viktor-bout-the-icon-for-international-black-markets/ Run? Swim? Sail? Fly… Must invent helicopter Nathan Mayer Rothschild As an astute business man he knew that inventing the helicopter might take a while…

Slide 27:

What about using something that could already fly…

Slide 28:

He bought, and trained, six homing pigeons. His associates released this right after the final score (England won). His offices across Europe got news of the result befor e his competitors

He at once started to sell…others thought that must mean the French had won…and also started selling. When the markets were in free fall…he quietly started buying. Laying the foundations, it is said, of the Rothschild fortune of today

Slide 32:

His counterpart is not, as yet, apparently so successful

Slide 33:

Perhaps using a bird to bring the news was the inspiration for Twitter?

Slide 34:

http://www.ethanzuckerman.com/blog/2008/01/23/viktor-bout-the-icon-for-international-black-markets/ Run? Swim? Sail? Fly? TAP? Nathan Mayer Rothschild Paul Julius Reuters The next step for news was beyond running, sailing, flying…it was TAPPING

Slide 35:

The telegraph spread news over wire: in a (sort of) binary code of dots & dashes… News technology again changed the world

SCOOP! :
