old media dead

"Old media is dead". Ever read that before? If you have, share that wisdom. If you haven't, there's an even better reason to share it with others! Everyone can have his part in making "the news" become what it used to be <-- ours.

Who knows, maybe it IS true that it seems weird to people to create their own news. But that is the way it used to be.

How come that I have these thoughts on a Sunday morning you might ask. Because I had a quick exchange with the ever knowledgeable Bala who happens to be a change-management consultant and online-community builder.
