Most important think is to think like a journalist</description>

		<description>Bloggers vs. Journalists? Sure, whateverâ€¦whatâ€™s needed is an arena where all people who care about a free press can come and fight for a new one. You can listen to a lot of â€œivory towerâ€ navel gazing about whatâ€™s wrong with the media, or you can do something about it. Itâ€™s time to fight for a new free press, itâ€™s time for NewsFight.</description>

		<description>Anyway, the publics are certainly entitled to their opinions, and it concerns me not if individual citizens have a negative opinion about WOMMA. But it is annoying to have â€œexpertsâ€ rail so foolishly against WOMMA and PR, building up PR strawman monopoly (ironic, considering his campaign against journalistâ€™s strawmen in stories about blogging).

		<description>President George W. Bush:
 
Please stop the sissy war you are waging!
 
Cordon off the suspected areas of insurgency and QUARANTINE that population!
 
Keep them under quarantine until you have vetted who is not the enemy!
 
There are good citizens there and bad guys. Why can't you separate them???
 
If Franklin Roosevelt could do it with Japanese Americans you can do it with the Iraqis!
 
Stop sending our boys out there to be cannon fodder!
 
Would General Patton be as impotent as your military under your leadership, seems to be?
 
President Bush fight a real war in Iraq or get out and let them fight it out the way we did in our Civil War!
 
If the bad guys win the civil war then we can come in THEN and bomb the hell out of them!
 
The bad guys are winning now as it is! Don't you see that??? You're presiding over a DUCK SHOOT!
 
Last but not least. Get rid of that arrogant fool - Rumsfeld!
 
                                                                                                   Concerned citizen,

<p>If Franklin Roosevelt could do it with Japanese Americans you can do it with the Iraqis!</p>
<p>Stop sending our boys out there to be cannon fodder!</p>
<p>Would General Patton be as impotent as your military under your leadership, seems to be?</p>
<p>President Bush fight a real war in Iraq or get out and let them fight it out the way we did in our Civil War!</p>
<p>If the bad guys win the civil war then we can come in THEN and bomb the hell out of them!</p>
<p>The bad guys are winning now as it is! Don&#8217;t you see that??? You&#8217;re presiding over a DUCK SHOOT!</p>
<p>Last but not least. Get rid of that arrogant fool - Rumsfeld!</p>
<p>                                                                                                   Concerned citizen,</p>
<p>                                                                                                   Abraham Fuchs</p>

		<description>Thanks for allowing comments since the New Yorker article did not.

At the end of the day the economics of the "professional" media will not allow publications to provide coverage on the most local of levels, particularly in non-metropolitan areas.

Where the business of the professional media results in gaps in coverage it seems to me that the simple sharing of information from one community member to another via the internet, be it a publishing mechanism such as a blog, wiki or otherwise, is preferable to nothing.

As media organizations attempt to appeal to a larger and larger audience to boost declining revenue, they will open the door further for small, independent organizations, not to mention individuals, who will serve all the noble purposes Lemann holds dear, with or without, the $100,000 or so education he can provide.

It is not about competition.  It is about sharing information.</description>

		<description>[...] In the first, blogger Tom Matrullo quotes Socrates. His context, coincidentally, is the silence of Columbia J-school&#8217;s Nick Lemann in the conversation he caused. Matrullo blogged: As the flood of responses and comments to Nicholas Lemann&#8217;s &#8220;On the Internet, everybody is a millenarian&#8221; article in the New Yorker continues to flow, bend, ripple and eddy, one can&#8217;t help but notice how Lemann&#8217;s piece simply stands there, mute, defunct. Sans capacity to comment, respond, defend, link. It&#8217;s Plato&#8217;s old distinction in the Phaedrus: blogs are the speaking voice, alive and self-present. Lemann&#8217;s article belongs to the world of print, of writing. [...]</description>
