CJ gives the common people POWER, and access to the TRUTH. Do you think that the Big Mediafeeds us the real thing? LOL

Oh, pu-leaze. "Citizen journalists" is a self-aggrandizing name for "amateurs".

ThunderPigBlog - Essentially Citizen Journalism is a good thing, I really agree! But my opinion is not BS, I was highlighting a weakness and a valid criticism that sadly will be encountered..I am open-minded about this issue. I have no wish to criticise you for stating your opinion. I do think You Tube is an excellent forum for ALL kinds of Media and journalism and ONE way Citizen Journalism really works is by enabling feedback through comments (like these.)

tinyblulites:That is pure, unadulterated BS!The very reason citizen journalism is rising is that the "professional accredited" journalists are a bunch of lying lefties.They brought it upon themselves, and I hope every newspaper in America goes bankrupt.

Wow, that was very "British" of you (that is a good thing). I appreciate the way you dealt with my answer. We all deserve an opinion (in my opinion of course, lol). As you have seen with the EU, giving up a small concession to a larger power can slowly erode your freedom. How you feeling about Brussels these days? But, I do understand your point. It is always a tough balance between power and anarchy. I hope you catch what I am meaning by this, I do not mean to offend.

..In view of what you say, I feel that it would certainly be beneficial (for those that want it) to have the introduction of some method of certification for Citizen Journalists with an institution OTHER than the "recognised journalism bodies?"This would give a better incentive to those that might not want to go through the usual channels (You Tube Could start a scheme for instance)... This is just my opinnion, you have yours. Thank you!

In reply to your comment. With respect, I categorically stated that I felt a dubvious "attitude" towards factual news sources uploaded on the internet by unqualified journalists, its a valid point afterall. I didn't refer to any "dubvious sources". There's also the burning issue of Media Law to consider...Here in Britain we are snowed under with kids going through journalism school trying hard to achieve "recognised journalistic body qualifications". C.t'd

So, you probably know what the Bilderberg Group is right? And how many of your "recognized journalistic bodies" reported on their annual meeting on June 5-8th, 2008, right here in Virginia? No, I think I will stick with my "dubious" sources thank you. When I want someone to feed me BS, I can always watch TV.

> tinyblulites said on 06-07-2008 at 20:06:
There is a very real danger that "citizen Journalism" will be construed as a form of second-rate journalism if unqualified people can just upload news on on the internet...I am very dubious about internet news sources, unless it's news supplied by an established news agency. To counteract this, the future must surely mean accredittation by a Journalistic body to set standards of excellence in this area, otherwise there may be conflict with the recognised journalistic bodies...

Good work. Great outline, thanks.
