Video conferencing is indeed a great innovation of Information Technology and Communications. I guess the news media is the first user of video conferencing.

Alastair.

Of all the things that you could accuse the podcast of. bashing journalists was not one of them. I think it’s clear that journalists are working hard to maintain a level of quality and professionalism in the face of big, fast moving changes. If anyone should be cutting slack it’s execs who don’t train or demand more things faster. If nothing else, more focus and a chance to step back and see what works and what doesn’t is the least journos deserve.

And no that isn’t aimed at TM or any other specific group. Its a general comment on what everyone accepts is a problem with the often unseemly haste to embrace digital and video in particular.

The two Andys should know that TMR papers are full of journalists doing their level best to produce brilliant websites in accord with the values and quality of the brilliant newspapers they already produce.
And I’m sure this applies throughout the industry.
We are on a learning curve, for sure, but learning we surely are.
My journalists are doing more things and doing them faster.
As Neil Benson points out we have already added TV to our multimedia portfolio – scripted, filmed and edited in house by print journalists.
We do not have the luxury of endless strategy debates and gentle contemplation. We are producing news, views, and entertainment across a range of channels 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
There is no stopping to admire our work, no getting off the treadmill whilst we think great thoughts.
We are flexible and we will change as fast as our audience changes.
And we are proud of what we have achieved and will achieve.
Cut us some slack, guys.
As Thumper mum’s told him: ‘If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.’

Listened to this podcast a few days ago and enjoyed it. Thanks!

I think one of you mentioned someone in Norwich who was doing interesting work online – any chance you could provide a name and/or link?

Cheers!
