I can honestly say that I cannot name a single journalist who has been "carried away" by the revolution and has lost sight of what journalism is really about.<br />Rather, I've seen journalists who have used the new tools to do a better job of telling "original, informative and entertaining Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07278569290198583553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9554091.post-36141781519532640092009-10-24T07:15:20.804-04:002009-10-24T07:15:20.804-04:00Much of what has taken place in the journalism rev...Much of what has taken place in the journalism revolution has been focused on style rather than content.

(Thanks for the <em>L. A. Times</em> link, Hunter!).<br /><br />Paul, is your new-media ennui the <em>real</em> reason you post so sparingly these days?
