Prince of the air

Rarely is a puff piece so well-deserved as the one about TVNewser Brian Stelter in today’s NY Times — on Page One, yet. He is, indeed, a phenom.

The moral to the story is pretty much the same as the one in David Carr’s column on TMZ.com: “TMZ is yet another lesson — a depressing one for old media types — in the Web’s ability to create a brand at breakneck speed.”

Depressing unless you’re the one building it.

    Speaking of “old media types,” have you seen today’s article in the Baltimore Sun?

    I’m sure it would provide plenty of fodder for your blog and ongoing discussions on the newspaper industry.
