Invest in Journalism




This is a great "article" by former LA Times Editor, James E O'shea. He's that old guy right there on the left.

While it's not exactly an article about politics, or an op-ed on the state of the nation, his farewell remarks upon being let go from his position at the Times deals with many difficult issues within journalism, and of course more specifically within the LA Times.

On the second page he deals with some issues of new media and the ways in which he envisions that print and the 'net can be used together.

I find it interesting that the full-text of the email was published by the NYTimes (that's where the link leads to) but I can find only a standard article about O'Shea's departure.
