Are reporters doomed?

by

The Guardian certainly thinks it’s a possibility. Citizen journalism, hyper-local reporting and other net-driven trends are making investigative journalists an increasingly rare breed. I’m a little conflicted on this, as I’ve got toes dipped in both the old and new media…..but newspapers, television and radio will have to adapt one way or the other.

I am Steven says:

CBC today ran a story about how CanWest Global newswriters are fearing the worst, as well. Two such stories on the same day=writing on the wall.

Come back to TV, Freyburg. It’s your only hope.
