    1. Investigative reporters

      Why are there no investigative reporters anymore? What happened to those men and women that dug deeply into a story not just printed what everyone else did.

      • Does there need to be a line drawn between a journalist and a blogger? Concider shield laws, etc

        If we mix a blogger and a journalist into one group then does anyone who writes a blog qualify for things like, shield laws, press access, or other tools that a journalist uses to complete a story.

        Then what are the requirements. Does someone who created a free blog, but never uses it receive the same benefits as a day to day journalist?

        Finally if a blogger is different then a journalist then what about journalist… more

          • How can we separate the discussion about funding journalism from discussions about good stories?

            Does the discussion over journalism's business model keep journalists from doing good work? Are you able to get the support, resources necessary to write good stories for publication in print or online?
