The need for editors. If anyone gets to the end of this rant could you drop me a note?

Media critic Jay Rosen knows everything about blogging on the Internet. He's the expert. Just like reporters are "experts'' on stuff they write about? Is anyone really an expert when it comes to journalism or blogs? The sources are the experts and we, as writers, just tap into their expertise, put it in a blender and then create a fancy slushy for readers to sip on.

But Rosen's stuff is unreadable. It goes on and on and on. He's truly from the old school. No one can possibly have enough time in their day to read all this stuff. If you are reading it, please let me know why. I just don't get it.

This is for Rosen's site: "Bloggers vs. Journalists is Over
"I have been an observer and critic of the American press for 19 years. In that stretch there has never been a time so unsettled. More is up for grabs than has ever been up for grabs since I started my watch."
