Surely in the past audiences 'old' journalism was fuel for people making decisions about how to live their lives and informing debate on who society should work or change. Did he think we just reading it in and of itself?<BR/><BR/>Now with 'new' journalism the thoughts that are triggered by a journalist's work are there on the web for all to see. Tough tits to Horrocks if they are not the ones he would like us to have. Who is he to judge?Andy Teddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11716950164312177743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6406300115535023534.post-49417798352693919192008-01-18T13:58:00.000+00:002008-01-18T13:58:00.000+00:00Good blog and alot to chew over.Made me think of a...Good blog and alot to chew over.<BR/>Made me think of a couple of things. That the BBC - and other news organisations - needs to think alot harder about how to involve online audiences. Not only in terms of structuring debates, moderating debates, and providing different types of spaces for different types of conversations. But also in terms of including the public in the news process. What I mean by that is providing the tools to let people do their own digging, and then share what they find.<BR/>You're absolutely right that just thinking of online debates / blogs etc as sources feeding into traditional journalism is anachronistic.Martin Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05199687667323867854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6406300115535023534.post-3562474998405513622008-01-14T12:22:00.000+00:002008-01-14T12:22:00.000+00:00Kevin,I agree this was a seminal speech by Peter, ...Kevin,<BR/>I agree this was a seminal speech by Peter, but I share your questions about his views on the limits of public involvement.<BR/>It seems that while the BBC welcomes public interaction, it still sees the public as contributing to BBC journalism rather than vice versa.<BR/>The BBC is a special case but it is not the only provider of public service value in journalism nor are the ethics of BBC journalism immutable either.<BR/>I've blogged about this at:<BR/>http://www.charliebeckett.org/?p=368<BR/>regards<BR/>Charlie Beckett<BR/>Polis, LSECharlie Becketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10509411548717912635noreply@blogger.com
