My classmate, Marisa, wrote in her blog about YouTube and how it is both a form of digital journalism and a sign of where the field is headed. I couldn't agree more. Instead of tuning in to watch their favorite reporter on the 6 o'clock news, consumers could connect at their own convenience to get a web update from their favorite field reporter.
It is fascinating to me, as I give the topic more and more thought, that digital journalism transcends the boundaries of paper, radio, and television to create whatever hybrid of the three is most practical at any given moment. This evolution and adaptation toward consumer wants and needs is a truly amazing thing. Hopefully our industry will be able to find a sustainable business model at the same time.
