	PressThink: BloggerCon: Discussion Notes for, "What is Journalism? And What Can Weblogs Do About It?"
		Journalism is a practice, or a set of practices, enabled by the creation of certain social technologies (hard technologies + social forms adapted to their use) for the distribution of information.
		Both Tom and Academy Girl treat "journalism" in its current state of mass-media practice as a static target—whether as a standard to be emulated (in AG's case) or avoided (in Tom's) by bloggers.
		Journalism is a largely conventionalized affair that has built-in resistance to experimenting with rhetoric, image, narrative, tone, etc. Journalism has its own entrenched rhetoric, one that offers the somber face of credibility that comes with a relatively uncomplicated set of assumptions about reality.

	Department of Journalism: Zoned for Debate
		A great journalism program teaches writing, reporting, and research, but also teaches the so-called larger issues like ethics, law, history, the culture of the newsroom, media studies, journalism traditions, the business of journalism, communications theory, ways to make our profession better, and the like.
		One of the awful things about this debate is that it continues the notion that in journalism, one is either in one camp or the other.
		The basic reporting camp is regarded as dumb by the other camp, and the basic reporting camp regards the others as people who detest journalism and know little or nothing about it.

	Yellow Journalism
		Although the actual practice of what would later become known as yellow journalism came into being during a more extended time period (between 1880-1890), the term was first coined based on a series of occurrences in and following the year of 1895.
		This comic strip happened to use a new special, non-smear yellow ink, and because of the significance of the comic strip, the term "yellow journalism" was coined by critics.
		One of the more disturbing features involved with the former practice of yellow journalism, and the period in which it was most active in is that there is no definite line between this period of yellow journalism and the period afterwards.

	CBC News Indepth: Journalism
		Editorial independence is a vital part of any respected medical journal and the CMA says it "recognizes the necessity of editorial independence of the Editor-in-Chief." As mentioned above, the content of a journal goes beyond peer-reviewed medical research.
		The idea of editorial independence is to prevent a medical journal (like the CMAJ) from buckling to political pressure or becoming a mouthpiece for the organization that publishes it (the Canadian Medical Association).
		The CMA establishes a five-member Journal Oversight Committee to review journal content and to "assist in maintaining harmonious relations between CMAJ and the association [CMA]," according to a CMAJ writer.

	Trust But Verify: journalism
		At the core of this case is a clear attempt to draw a line between professional and amateur journalism, and as a practitioner of both, I have to say it's a very dangerous line to be drawing.
		There's a lot of journalism, too, and a lot of information and a lot of thoughtful discussion and a lot of consumer feedback that falls between raw and professional.
		Blogs run the gamut, and I don't mean the one Dorothy Parker used when she said Katherine Hepburn ran the gamut from A to B. I doubt Steinberg was trying to leave the impression that all blogging falls into the boundaries he used but that's the problem with a lot of well-meaning journalism about blogs.
