What was the main purpose of it. It was to broadcast to the world cases of what was happening in a time where broadcasting was insanely difficult and expensive. Now that this isn't I see reporting as something that can be done by someone with a little training and the ability to broadcast from anywhere. Having said that reporting can be done by anyone with a flip cam, iPhone, laptop and an internet connection. This is why efforts like iReport and many others are better than usual media to inform about breaking news around the world. As far as who will curate this content on the internet, I think it will be a great business opportunity to develop various models of curating. Niche sites, crowd curated sites and many other models will emerge and fit in different needs on the general public. On the other end there is journalism as a analysis profession. In this case I see professional journalists still being valuable in sharing their opinions and moderating the debates between opposing point of views. So the future of journalism is more in analysis than in reporting. Reporting just became plain vanilla and will be even more in the future. So old media organizations (as monstrously big as they are) are to be engineered into lean networks of people with less assets and just assuring that the quality of the debate and opinions held in that specific company are of quality for users to care to pay attention to. .-= Jorge´s last blog ..<a href="http://jorge.threefivesup.com/if-you-want-to-meet-your-objectives-make-your" rel="nofollow">If you want to meet your objectives, make your product useful.</a> =-.
