yes, I agree with you mike...

It's extremely sad that "journalistic virtues" are taking second place to commercial needs... but was it not ever so? No newspaper in history survived without making sales and the greatest journalistic virtue was a big and loyal readership, which is exactly what every blogger dreams of as well! So perhaps nothing has really changed.

nice article... thanks.. mike..

It's extremely sad that "journalistic virtues" are taking second place to commercial needs... but was it not ever so?  No newspaper in history survived without making sales and the greatest journalistic virtue was a big and loyal readership, which is exactly what every blogger dreams of as well!  So perhaps nothing has really changed. 

Well, a few things have.  News moves at a faster pace than ever before.  In fact, we don't get 'News' anymore.  We get headlines.  There isn't time for analysis.  Most of the time we get half-formed fragments of stories, and most of these are ultimately dropped in favour of the big story of the moment, which then receives weeks of attention at the expense of all other noteworthy events - and all the online media are more guilty of this than print or broadcast ever was, because it's so easy to rattle off a blog post or slap an article on a website, or deposit half a dozen comments with linkbacks. 

You'd think that online media would be the solution to this problem; it's very nature permitting people to work remotely, to upload (read: publish) stories and developments at all hours of the day, as and when they have something worthwhile to say.  You'd think it would allow journalists to return to proper investigative reporting where they have the time to put in the legwork, to dig deep and develop a story before putting it out at their own convenience, rather than rushing to make an edition. But it seems not. 

Instead, they use this extra communicating power to boost PR rather than providing good copy.  This is the same as being lazy.  It's easier to advertise sub-standard work that you've plagiarised anyway, rather than create new and interesting content.  Being interesting is harder.

So, you can either use the amazing liberty embodied in a wifi connection, and the amazing communication and information resources embodied in cell phones and laptops to do better work than ever before, or you can use it to be lazier than ever before.
