Newspaper readers don¡¯t behave the way they did in 1975. Nor should newspaper publishers ( or TV, radio companies) Nor should journalism educators
What does this all mean for journalists?
Video ¨C front news pieces  or video events & edit packages Write blogs as well as stories Create slide shows   + Polls  +  Podcasts  +  Record press conferences
What does this all mean for  journalism educators?
Teach the fundamentals of journalism ¨C fairness, accuracy, balance, how to get to the point etc
Give students experience working with audio, images & video Help them get comfortable online ¨C file types, uploading, writing for the web, conversations Give them some useful tools such as feed readers and social bookmarking sites
