So i have been thinking about what others have said about my topic and here is what im thinking. There is a lot of blogging being done about news worthy. I think im going to focus on the idea that blogging is a new form of media that needs to be taught in the journalim classes. it needs to be taught as a genre of journalist news writing in a way that reporters have their own blogs and post to them news reports. what i find interesting is that people can comment on those post, this seem to be changing the face of news and the way we interact with the news. It is like people can comment and the journalists can respond back. this seems like a good thing in theory. I have yet to do more reseach about this idea, but is something i want to explore more. there was a lot in the reading about journalism programs wanting to avoid technology and stick to the traditional ways of teaching the genres of journalism, but the deal is that the face of the news reporting is changing and so people who teach it need to embrace it or the students are the ones who will loseĀ out.
