Zombie Journalism » ews http://zombiejournalism.com Dispatches from the walking dead in today's "old" media Thu, 09 Sep 2010 21:37:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 en hourly 1 Journalism and the Interwebs: A Reading Guide http://zombiejournalism.com/2009/12/journalism-and-the-interwebs-a-reading-guide/ http://zombiejournalism.com/2009/12/journalism-and-the-interwebs-a-reading-guide/#comments Fri, 11 Dec 2009 19:36:38 +0000 Mandy http://manjamedia.com/?p=557 I read a lot of industry blogs and they generally all boil down to two topics: complaining about the Internet (or complaining about people complaining about the Internet) and lamenting the future of news.  It makes it all a little tough to keep up with what actual issues we’ve settled this year and what’s still out there to be figured out.

Thankfully, the Nieman Lab Blog took the time to assemble what dominated discussion regarding the future of news this year and takes a look at what will likely be hot topics next year as the industry continues to reel and (hopefully) evolve.  Most notably, next year seems to be heading in a direction of looking beyond the industry itself to what the affects the changes in the industry will (or should) have on journalism education, politics and public policy.

And in the second camp of journalism industry blog posts, Paul Bradshaw reviews all of the complaints news folks have had against The Internets over the years in one fell swoop. From hating on Google to opposing blogs and user-provided news, he offers something of a summation of just how depressing some news execs can be when it comes to that which they don’t understand.
