Poynter.org, the website for journalists, published my rant, 'Take a Blogger to Lunch' last week, and it has legs. I put more of myself out there than ever before, but our industry really needs people to shout from the roof tops that the future is nothing to fear.
I was very, very tired of the panic sweeping The Washington Post and other newsrooms. The article is a challenge to those of us in the mainstream media to do what we are trained to do - get out and mix it up with the people. We have gotten very comfortable 'reporting' on our communities, but we have forgotten that we are part of those communities as well.
We have got to do better if we are going to survive.
