The second tweet [Could the journos...identify yourselves?] is my question. In fact, wouldn't it be slick to have a simple table of journalists/publications, major world events, and a simple list of check boxes whether they were for, against, or indifferent/agnostic? Maybe even some indicator of when they change their initial position. Might be useful to see which organizations consistently have to/chose to switch their positions over time...
This is an interesting idea. An information management tool like git could accomplish this, but it would be really interesting to see this automated or self-reported or something like that. Although... the kind of company that you would use a tool like this to "discover" is not the kind of company that would self-report this data.
