Globeandmail.com: Future of newspapers debate at 1pm ET on Tuesday
March 16th, 2009Posted by Judith Townend in Editors' pick, Events, Newspapers, Online Journalism
The Globe and Mail’s ‘Future of Media: Is democracy written in disappearing ink?’ article has provoked a fair amount of comment (226 beneath the article alone, at the time of writing)
So, this should be fun, a debate on the Globe and Mail’s site, tomorrow:
“…reporter Grant Robertson and deputy editor Sylvia Stead will join us on Tuesday at 1 p.m. ET to debate these topics and take your questions on the future of the newspaper industry.”
“Can journalism truly be saved if newspapers are not? Can citizen journalists in the blogosphere fill the void? What are the social costs of the industry’s decline? How has the Globe and Mail dealt with the fundamental shift in the way people want to consume information?”
That’s 5pm GMT.
