Participatory Journalism

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the helping-hand dept.

J.D. Lasica has written a three-part series on participatory journalism. He put a lot of emphasis on video netcasting, which I think has a lot of years to go before it's actually important in any sense due to the slow growth of broadband in the U.S., but overall it's a good analysis of trends in interactivity.

    I would argue that every reader of the blog is, in fact, an editor.

    Slashdot -- where everyone is an editor with the exception of the editors.

    I think this is the ultimate form of "interactive" journalism...

    The Naked News, The program with nothing to hide.

    I mean, really though, those who watch this, are they really paying attention to the latest George W. Bush sound clip?

    I mean, I'm all for bewbies, but has our society really gotten to the point where the only way we can get people to be interested in current events is if the ignorant public gets to see primo mammary glandage?

    Good grief.
