Timeliness --- Thanks Wossene and Murdoch. The timeliness issue is further complicated by the way the internet and associated technologies have filled the news space with messaging aimed at markets in (for example) one time zone but arriving in other markets at the same time. The world sees that right now with the multiplicity of messages from the Glasgow COP26 Climate Change conference. It can be very confusing working out how to make this multiplicity relevant to the situation in which we, as HDiplomats everywhere in the world, work.
