I watched the unfolding story of Benazir Bhutto’s assassination on BBC News 24 yesterday. For several hours.

This audio slideshow at the New York Times tells the story of what happened in a very much more powerful way using a handful of photos and a single journalist’s voice. It’s not breaking news, but it’s taken 12 hours or less to get this out and as I saw some of the Getty images it uses yesterday on the BBC it’s likely that it could have been published very soon after the audio report was filed. There’s a very real-time feel to it.
