Session Journalism 2005: A New Era for Newsmakers Dan Gillmor, Founder and Director, Center for Citizen Media Track: Workshops Date: Tuesday, October 05 Time: 8:45am0 Location: Carmel I TrackBack Newsmakers -- the people and institutions that journalists cover -- are in a new world. They're discovering new vulnerabilities. When anyone can be a journalist, many talented people will try -- and they’ll find things the professionals miss. The people at the edges of the communications and social networks can be a newsmaker’s harshest, most effective critics. But they can also be the most fervent and valuable allies, offering ideas to each other and to the newsmaker as well. But newsmakers also have new ways to get out their message, using the same technologies the grassroots adopts. This workshop explains how journalism is changing, and how newsmakers can adapt.
