We will show you what’s going on at the Newseum — much more coming up. (CMMERCIAL BREAK) BLITZER: It’s a problem for all the presidential candidates: protecting their reputations when so much is being said about them true and false especially out there on the Internet. ne site many people use as a source of information is Wikipedia. But anyone can add or delete information there or even attack McCain Clinton and bama’s Wikipedia pages with pranks and vicious attacks. CNN’s Tom Foreman has been looking into this story. So what’s a candidate to do Tom? TM FREMAN CNN CRRESPNDENT: Yes what do you do when the mouse roars and everybody’s got a mouse? That’s the deal. There’s a presidential war raging on Wikipedia right now that online user-edited encyclopedia that virtually everyone turns to now and then… CNN’s Tom Foreman has been looking into this story. So what’s a candidate to do Tom? TM FREMAN CNN CRRESPNDENT: Yes what do you do when the mouse roars and everybody’s got a mouse? That’s the deal. There’s a presidential war raging on Wikipedia right now that online user-edited encyclopedia that virtually everyone turns to now and then. (BEGIN VIDETAPE) FREMAN (voice-over): Three hundred million times a day people click on Wikipedia for information about chameleons catastrophes and presidential candidates. And that is where it gets tricky because for months supporters of all three have been furiously changing Wikipedia entries to make their choice look good and the opponent’s look bad. Andrew Rashay (ph) is studying the impact on this election. UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The people who are watching over those pages have to basically act as vigilantes to make sure that the information remains as unbiased as possible.

Book Review: Keith Gessen’s ‘All the Sad Young Literary…
International Herald Tribune – Apr 11, 2008
Despite all he knew about elegance and all he knew about polish his material was ill sourced and his story as lifeless as pebbles. Fiction writers emerging from the world of journals often want to write about the hungers of their generation the wants and hopes the dreads and fussing that might characterize a group of brainy young people struggling for success at the prime of their lives. ne must assume that Keith Gessen has witnessed these struggles up close – not merely in his own backyard but in his bathroom mirror – for he writes about them with the kind of knowledge you don't find on Wikipedia. The ambition of young literary Americans is a kind of trench warfare and Gessen an editor of the magazine n+1 proves himself not only a capable observer but a natural novelist with a warm gun. We first meet Mark in 1998 when he comes to live in Queens with his Russian girlfriend Sasha. I'm not sure how much fun Mark and Sasha would be to hang out with but lucky for us and unlucky for them they spend most of their time with each other. They tend to argue about Israel and about Russian art – “they worried about history and themselves” – and one imagines them to be the sort of potentially happy couple made joyless by a gargantuan lust for self-improvement.
