Self-aware not self-obsessed
by John Craig
Jay Rosen has an interesting post on Comment is Free, which seems increasingly like the UK's answer to the Huffington Post. He talks about how the media can use online dialogue to make their work transparent and open to challenge without becoming self-absorbed. Rosen is a profesor of journalism and the media commentary on his Pressthink blog has long fascinated me - it's subtitled 'the ghost of democracy in the media machine'. So I am delighted to say that he will explore journalism in greater depth in an essay for our collection on the future of professionalism, to be published in June.
