Who else is attacking us?</p>leetaylorSat, 16 Mar 2013 01:38:23 -0000http://www.megantaylor.org/2009/09/01/rebooting-tomorrows-news-tomorrows-journalists/#comment-15756625<p>Hey Ms. Online Journalist:</p><p>This is the way I see it: Journalism is a hose: it can be long, short, various diameters. One end gets shoved (by the owner of the hose) into the great river of life (at various places, to various depths). Suction is applied and the opposite end of the hose is then aimed at media customers (of one demographic or another) depending on who will pay or sometimes who will read/listen. That's all most journalism is. You're absolutely right to call for a mission statement, not just for TNTJ, but for Journalism as a whole. What the hell do you guys stand for? Perhaps you haven't noticed the WAR between the Good Guys and the Bad Guys, the White Hats and the Black Hats. Perhaps you are still living in the sixties when the world was GRAY. Truth is, it never was gray. There are people who care and do good things to make the world a better place, and then there's everybody else. Choose your side. And do it quickly, because there is no time to scratch your ass and ask the Ouija board. If you're not with us, then get out of the way. </p>leetaylorWed, 02 Sep 2009 08:31:02 -0000
