Journalism's bright Future
(is a Lie?)
The lecture/essays from the George T. Delacorte Center 

 at Columbia Journalism School Lecture Series on Magazines

"Build the Future"
"Journalism's deathwatch is over"

By Jacob Weisberg
Chairman and editor-in-chief of The Slate Group



"False idol"
"The scourge of 'digital correctness'

By John R. MacArthur
Publisher of Harper's Magazine




Editor Notation:
Before you let the print pages of the current edition of CJR (Columbia Journalism Review) yellow, you must read the above mentioned essays. The historical context of where we are now and where we are headed is quixotically captured here. Too important to overlook.            I almost did.
Tim.
