Old Media Adopts New Journalist Stepchildren

[...] The line between content producer and content consumer is continually blurring, as the mobile devices we carry with us every day become more capable of producing high quality media. By Eric Lin for The Feature.com.

"If traditional media outlets are finally picking up content from modern sources, it is also likely they will start to produce some modern content of their own. Some newspaper journalists are already blogging for their papers, but these are typically self-contained entities.

Despite the rise of the web and blogs, most people still turn to traditional media sources for their news. Instead of an open, new media news source displacing the old guard, it now seems possible that traditional media will co-opt new technology, incorporating it into their coverage, and using it to maintain their position at the top of the news food chain."
