The Future of News Reporting
Social media has blurred the divide between journalist, blogger and citizen, or has it? Mainstream news websites now rely on reader photos, news tips, and comments to drive traffic. Bloggers have an unmistakeable voice. And journalists have (finally) discovered Twitter delivers news leads and more. But where's it all headed? Our panel on will discuss the following issues:
- Is citizen reporting gaining credibility, or is it an indulgence of the noisy minority?
- Is the 'passive massive' too attached to their couches to care about participation?
- The Twitter factor: Is live twitter commentary reinventing TV?
- The journalist/blogger/citizen reporter debate: what's really in a name? Is this journalist paranoia or a real revolution?
- Case studies: What can we learn from citizen journalism experiments in Australia and around the world?
