“journalism is not dead. The current business model for the industry is what is ailing like a fish out of water but journalism remains viable. It’s important to remember the difference.”

That is simply the best thing I have read today. Knowing the difference between this and that is a key in any business.

I appreciate good journalism when I read it (or see it) for I know I am not a journalist…but then again neither are a lot of reporters.

You really hit it, newscoma. The failure to embrace tech, in some cases the outright hostility to it, is so contrary to what I used to love about the type of people who chose journalism: brash, smart, maybe even a little arrogant. Now it’s like the only thing left is arrogance and a sense of entitlement.

I used to have this scrawled on the whiteboard in my office: Are you a journalist or do you just work for a newspaper? I erased it. The answers were too depressing.
