That extract is from the 1pm-4pm section of the Cover-It-Live event which the NST used to collate accounts from reporters all over the city, interspersed with comparison Tweets, as well as readers comments.

Overall, the NSTs live coverage was disappointing, with reporting interspersed in between comments as well as conversation, self-promotion, as well as the strongly pro-police tone after all, it was labelled Jul 9 crackdown. NST Live was notable especially for:

• Faithfully on condition that an entrance for the Umno-BNs desired talking points:

• The convene is illegal
• The military have been you do the great job
• The convene is about politicians
• The convene formula in lost business
• The public have been inconvenienced
• Tourism will suffer

Interspersed with bits of reporting were comments from readers adhering to the celebration line

There was additionally the bit of self-promotion, with readers faithfully promising to ditch the Star as well as subscribe to the NST instead

And in between, Roy See air blower bar rushed breathlessly with the barrage of comments supporting their hero

Those wanting the some-more coherent design would have done better for themselves by picking the couple of distinguished Twitterers as well as the couple of media Twitter accounts: they would have have the some-more finish as well as rounded account.
