A smart, focused look at the strengths / weaknesses of “legacy media” - the painful financial shift of readers to “new media” - the ignorance / arrogance of new media that survives off the backbone of “old media” - and the truly impressive teamwork and talent of world class JOURNALISTS at the top of their game.

The only risk most bloggers or new media start-ups take is investment of “time” producing opinions that aren’t held to any standard of fact / accuracy. “Legacy” media is the soul of democracy in that it strives to be fair, balanced, thorough and PATIENT in determining IF there’s a story to tell, and - when they tell it - that it’s well researched and accurate. Who will PAY for that in the future?

Ironically - I think investigative, long-form journalism will come from documentary film-makers.
