Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: Bainbo Date: 29 Jan 12 - 02:13 PM Meaningless example. That story's from The Hollywood Reporter. I doubt anyone has ever turned to that organ expecting to find hard-hitting investigative journalism. I grant you that good journalism is harder to find than it might once have been, for any number of reasons, including dwindling resources, and an element of "the public gets what the public wants". But it's certainly not dead. |
Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: Charmion Date: 29 Jan 12 - 02:18 PM Journalism has died and been reborn several times over the last century. As long as there are government and taxpayers, entertainers and the entertained, criminals and victims, and good old-fashioned gossip and nosiness, journalism will thrive in one form or another. |
Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: Don Firth Date: 29 Jan 12 - 02:43 PM THAT's journalism!?? No, there is great sickness in the field of journalism, but there are a number of very healthy journalists running around out there. You just need to keep your brain in gear, exercise healty skepticism, and cross-check a lot. Don Firth |
Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: pdq Date: 29 Jan 12 - 03:43 PM Sad commentary on the state of the U.S. but its nothing new. Go back 100 years or so and read about Pulitzer and Hearst and their "yellow journalism". Even more nauseating than the current promotion of worthless Pop Culture. |
Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: GUEST,Wesley S Date: 29 Jan 12 - 03:48 PM That style of journalism will only come to an end when people stop reading it. How did you find it? |
Subject: RE: BS: Journalism is dead From: Skivee Date: 29 Jan 12 - 06:49 PM Wesley. I view an intrawebs-net.com humor site called eatliver.com. I didn't catch the beast on the hoof. |
