Very common for radio, TV and print here in Canada On Wednesday, July 16, 2003, at 03:06 PM, Joanie McCollom wrote:
Hi,
This definitely happens in Malaysia, where the press is very controlled. This activity is part of my PhD dissertation, which I am currently writing. (We can talk more offline about overlaps in our work, if you're interested.)
I don't think we see it as much on CNN because by and large American audiences believe their media to be free and thus are less critical of what they read.

Dear Friends,
In Israel "talk-backing" is quite common over the net. That is public responses to news items, which are published in a newsgroup's "string" style. I haven't seen this phenomena on news websites (e.g CNN.com ; nytimes.com) and was wondering:
a) Are "talk backs" practiced in other countries?
b) What is the origin of this activity?
c) Are there references which discuss this form of communication?
Hoping to hear from you…
