Perhaps we need broader education for citizen journalists, to help them do a good job in their part of the media ecology. #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

Clearly J schools can teach J skills in addition to ethics. Lack of skill is why random ppl can't do an expert job of reporting. #kmedia

Interesting that the only panelist *not* advocating govt subsidies for journalism is from the FTC. lol. #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

@TanjaAita Ackerman's proposal is v different from Kachingle. In K, you determine where your contribution goes & it's voluntary. #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

If we have govt subsidies for J based on ppl clicking on news articles, I'll hire Chinese clickers at 1000 clicks/$ and get rich. #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

If the market doesn't produce "enough" news (or watchdoggery), how do we know how much is enough? "More" isn't a good answer. #kmedia

@mrenoch That'll be $2, please. :-) #kmedia

@JimMilles Fraction of women speakers about the same as in audience. Audience has smattering of Asians, two blacks. #kmedia

@mrenoch That'll be $2, please. :-)

@Rosental Don't think role of J in a democracy was being questioned. It's the marginal benefit of this $ going to J fund vs other #kmedia

Jack Balkin advocates that 1st Amendment rights & shield laws should apply to everyone engaged journalistic activity, pro or am. #kmeda

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

In the coming news ecosystem, to whom do shield laws apply? Who gets the advantage of 1st Amendment "free press" rights? #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

@ianhillmedia I don't care if the American public wants newspapers. I'm more interested in how people can get the news they want. #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

That is, why is the status quo magical, the current number of journalists somehow "correct"? #kmedia

[Steve R. White @SteveRWhite]

If we're worried about *fewer* reporters exposing govt corruption, why haven't we been equally worried about deploying many more? #kmedia
