As part of the 5th anniversary celebration of NewsBusters we have started a weekly Five for Five feature to list the blog’s top twenty five posts. Last week, we looked at the top five posts of embarrassing media moments. Today we continue with the top five posts that broke news. We have picked out a couple posts from each of the five categories and asked the authors to reflect back on writing them up. In this series of short videos, they share their thoughts on how they caught the particular media moment and describe the impact their post had. We continue our video look back by reflecting on two of top posts that broke news: “Hillary Shot At in ’96? No Media Mention of Bosnia ‘Sniper Fire'” by Rich Noyes and “MSNBC: ObamaCare Protesters ‘Racist,’ Including Black Gun-Owner” by Kyle Drennen. Check out last week’s video of NewsBusters’ Matthew Balan and Geoffrey Dickens remembering some of the top posts embarrassing the media.
