Not important crime story told on Facebook

You could have easily missed this small step in a journalism revolution. About an hour after the Super Bowl ended, an entertaining call came over the scanner.

A disgruntled Steelers fan was taking some of his frustration out on neighborhood mailboxes and letting his neighbors know how he felt about the game.

I covered the incident, sitting in my chair and reporting what the scanner chirped (not recommended ever), on Facebook.

Yes, the tomorrow of journalism has dawned.

This has potential to fail

I just don’t see this working out. Sorry.
