Topic for Comp Contrast

I've decided, ignore any other suggestions.

I'm going to compare and contrast digital versus print journalism, with a possible emphasis on Twitter and fact checking.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Three points- Ethics, Public service/informative role, investigative reporting.

This article gives a good primer on the traditional view of journalism.
I'm thinking I may modify the three points I have there to better incorporate the nine major tenets of journalism and how they differ from digital, or non-traditional, journalism. I'll also have to discard or condense those nine in order to get down to three.

EDIT: Three points revised: Business model, ethics, results of the previous two.
Not sure how I'll introduce or conclude, but I think the topic is suitable.
Thoughts?
