It sounds like mainstream publishing trying to discredit the force that is disrupting their business. It would be wiser for them to adapt and embrace. You might get a lot of pleasure from reading another Birmingham blogger Paul Bradshaw - he's a specialist on online journalism.

I don't know how much the web can help the information system based on newspapers in your contry. In Italy we are having some problems about this. Lots of editors and journalist don't use internet in a constructive way. Internet always is used for negative's news, the crime news becomes attractive if it is seasoned with some reference to the web, like video on youtube. In many cases there is a computer illiteracy of journalists. Example: In a famous program on the public channel with a notable journalist, they talked about: - The young discomfort is associated with internet. - Blogs are something that do only a crazy kid. - Blogs are written by children suffering from multiple personality problems. - Blogs and sexual perversions are closely linked. - They linked blog with only a desire of protagonism - One from the public, for information discredit quoted from a guest said: "I don't know where she has found this news, it's false. Probably she has found on internet…" This is the video of that program: http://tinyurl.com/2qm3c6 There are many young people who want to be a journalist, that can understand how is important internet nowaday. Unfortunately they find a lot of barriers for becoming a registered journalist: takes a long time, many many years with very low wages and lots of difficulties. I'm convinced that another problem is the business strategy that still have the newspapers. They use the readers as a commodity for the advertising market, rather than a "Prosumer". This triggers a bad circle where quality and professionalism expire considerably. I hope you can understanding my view that it's not against all the journalist but only against an internet illiteracy. My compliments for your blog and for your work.(not only polite) Hi Nick, you are right, but I think there could be some misunderstanding, I want to clear it to you.

I'm sure someone [?] once said that "truth is always subversive". And you are my sort of blogger :)
