Interesting Links, August 2, 2009

August 2nd, 2009 by Maria Langer

Here are links I found interesting on August 2, 2009:

  • The Death of Journalism (Gawker Edition) – Ian Shapira writes about how Gawker ripped off an article he wrote for the Washington Post and what acts like that mean for the future of journalism. The piece highlights something I've been saying for a long time: blogs like Gawker and Huffington Post are building content based on the hard work of people not on their payrolls. There's something ethically WRONG with this. But what's worse is that when those people are no longer being paid to write, who will be doing the journalism? Thanks to @estherschindler on Twitter for sharing the link.
