The web may be in the best position to *break* stories first, but people will always turn to the TV to watch a news story unfold with more analysis.

Kinda full of yourself, eh? Guess what, a Time Warner property breaking the news isn’t exactly viral.

Dumping unconfirmed stories is exactly why people wait for professionals to validate the story.
I wouldn’t be too proud of speed because you still lack credibility. Come back when reading a news item doesn’t immediately trigger a web search.
