has today’s multimedia taken anything away from people who train to gather news, develop sources, strengthen their writing skills, layout and design? What makes someone who writes a daily column different from someone who writes a blog covering the same subject? A California newspaper recently gave a job covering it’s city hall meetings to a telecommuter in India. Are the people of that community being deprived of real journalism???
