journos and blogging
Hittade en bra artikel på Online Journalism Review om Blogger Con III skriven av Staci D Kramer (via Scripting News):
Journos and Bloggers: Can Both Survive?
Kramer sorterar intrycken från konferensen och delar med sig av intressanta synpunkter som jag tycker har bäring på affären ”Sveriges bästa Observer-blogg” (eller vad man nu skall kalla den).
Till exempel vad bloggare kan lära sig av journalister, och vice versa:
What journalists can learn from bloggers:
- you can blur the line between the personal and professional without corrupting the process;
- you can learn to improvise in real time;
- how to have a conversation with their readers;
- to be humble – you don’t know everything.
Bloggers can learn from journalists:
- the value of leg work;
- the nature of accountablility;
- that editing is a good thing;
- to be humble – you don’t know everything.
Eller hur journalistiska bloggar kan se ut (jag ser Cecilia Uddéns framför mig när jag läser detta
):
Journalistic blogging doesn’t have to be objective or impartial as long as the point of view is transparent and facts are presented unambiguously. Blogging journalists don’t have to toss emotion around or share their personal lives to create blogs with meaning, although those limitations might pose a greater challenge.
Kramer avslutar med ett tips till journalister som ska skriva om bloggar:
Journalists who write about blogging need to remember that a single blog or a kind of blog doesn’t represent all blogs, just as one journalist or media outlet doesn’t represent all journalists.And we all need to keep in mind that whether we are bloggers, journalists or both, our readers, viewers or users will judge the rest by what we do.
