The future of journalism in America lies with the average Joe, according to the Franklin Center for Government and Public Integrity, the organization determined to help prepare the public for this 21st century job.
A panel hosted by the Virginia-based organization offered some insights to the citizen journalists in training assembled in downtown Orlando on Saturday. Participating panelists included Sandi Gehring, a self-described recovered liberal media veteran-turned-consultant and author. Gehring offered an insiders view of the world of mainstream media, having worked for outlets like CNN and The New York Times. Tom Tillison, founder of the tea party-centered online publication, Florida Political Press, and BizPac Review President Jack Furnari also had plenty to share about their roles in Floridas political landscape.

Great.
Another wave of lame-assed blogpimps in the making.
How about an expose of black on white crime, illegal immigrant on American citizen crime, why we, as taxpayers are funding racist groups like La Raza,....
They can be had. All that is required to defeat them is a little creativity and a refusal to be intimidated.
I have to admit the Romney team is doing a pretty good job of parrying the usual jabs from the leftist media. I'd like to see them start attacking.
Terrific post, T.O.K., and it’s good to see that things like this are being diner. Waving signs and demonstrating are fine, but journalism is the only real way to get the truth out. Things like this give us all hope.

Looks like self appointed mod Humblegunner got his account suspended.
Again?
He’s been a very bad boy.
Damn.
He'll be sorely missed.
They never fail to fall for that....
Skeeter got his head on straight. The left’s hold on the MSM is tenuous and they know it. That’s why they are so thin skinned and utterly incapable of “criticism, self criticism” a la Chairman Mao.
We need to tap into our inner satirist and rake these air heads across their own petards. I’m a recovering Stalinist and I’m game as hell. Attack is the agenda. Use their own feel good, Mr. Nice Guy approach. The great leftist contradiction is that they claim to crave freedom, yet every step they take, every move they make, enslaves. Hit their contradictions. I see a lot of canny with and searing humor on this blog. The FR wisenheimers need to link up into brigade formation. Email me.
