Ok, news look great with Instagram & Co.

But...

…it's ethical?

Opportunities

Address an audience of 40 millions and countingl (not considering sharing on other social networks)

l Build a sense of community

Use Instragram to find sources and images to cover breaking news (esp. via the geolocation feature) orl cultural – entertainment events

Add emotion even to “flat” images, such as staffl meetings, behind the scenes, etc

Risks

l Go for the audience, not for the news

l Making even tragedies “likable” and vintage

l “cheat” the audience (but don't forget Photoshop)

l Standarize

A conclusion (maybe)

l Be transparent on the device and effect you usel Use Instagram to cover the latest fashion week l Think twice for breaking news and “serious” situations
