  1. “This WSJ editorial is a damning exhibit in outright hackery. But I suspect its audience–other hackish media outlets–finds it a persuasive read.”

  2. “When it comes time to explain the media landscape of the 20th century, I will be teaching my own youth as ancient history.”

  3. “I fear Johann was misled by a common cultural meme - the idea that “truth” can be captured by fine writing and by art. This is not wrong in all contexts. Great novels and films  - works of fiction - can tell important truths. This meme, though, runs into a problem. Very often, “truth” is messy.”

  4. “The emotional intelligence of group members, in other words, serves the cognitive intelligence of the group overall. And this means that — wait for it — groups with more women tend to be smarter than groups with more men. (As Malone put it: “More females, more intelligence.”)”

  5. “On 04.20.11 David Niblock said: Thank you for this candid tribute, Charlotte. I know the news of Tim’s departure will be an enormous shock to everyone … even those, like me, who only knew him through his work. These days aren’t supposed to happen.”

  6. “Online, though, there’s so much content that [SEO and journalism] can co-exist… with revenue from SEO paying for real journalism”.”

  7. “I can’t decide whether serious journalism is the kind of thing that lures an audience to a site like The Huffington Post, or if that’s like hiring a top chef to fancy up the menu at Hooters. But if serious journalism is about to enjoy a renaissance, I can only rejoice.”

  8. “There is a reason why media companies are still referred to as “the press.” For a long, long time the printing machine was the core technology that provided a comfortable competitive edge. The ability to produce a million copies overnight and distribute them before breakfast offered a solid foundation for making money. No more. Enter the “trust market”. Trust, not information, is the scarce resource in today’s world. Trust is something that is hard to earn and easy to lose. And it is a core element of journalism, few other professions are so dependent on trust. But it is not just a requirement, it is also an enormous underserved market. Media companies will learn that it is trust, not SEO, branding, or content farming that’s the road to success. And that road points right to data journalism.”

  9. “Benson and doctoral student Matthew Powers surveyed public media systems in 14 countries for a Free Press report that documents this. In every Western European democracy they examined, public broadcasting channels attract at least a third of the national TV audience. Public spending per capita on media in all 14 countries ranges from $30 to $134 a year. In the U.S., that figure is less than $4. It goes up to about $9 when individual and corporate donations are included. In all 14 countries, public media offered higher quality coverage of public affairs, more critical coverage of government and a wider diversity of viewpoints than their commercial counterparts (a pattern that holds for NPR). And these foreign public media stations have the freedom to schedule news programming during prime time, a luxury not afforded to the American viewer who doesn’t get home from work in time to watch the nightly news — at 5:30. As a result, studies show that the level of knowledge about public affairs in many of these countries is both higher than it is in the U.S. and more equitably spread across education, class, race, ethnicity and gender.”

  10. “We have to reject the tired notion that objectivity means the reader can get all the way to the bottom of the story and not know what to think.”
