I have a Google Alert set for the word cyberpunk. The latest buzz is swarming around JoBlo's report that Hayden Christensen is set to star as the character Case in the film adaptation of Neuromancer.
It's interesting to me the way such news proliferates and spreads. Alerts have been coming in for about a week now on the rumor which still appears to have just one source, JoBlo. I imagine that most people wouldn't come across such news via Google Alerts, so I looked at all the links I've been provided to the story and G4's The Feed is probably the most likely source for most people. But they're not a primary source, and they don't claim to be. They link their story to a Dark Horizons report. And where did Dark Horizons get their info? JoBlo, of course.
So where did JoBlo get its information? JoBlo.com sources
, of course!
