What I’m reading (via Publish 2)
- Dumb Like a Fox
  A dissection of Fox News finds that ""whatever it is that dominates cable news, it is largely not journalism." No way.
- NEW YORK CITY LAW DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCES PUBLICATION OF PROPOSED NEW RULES FOR PRESS PASSES THAT INCORPORATE ONLINE MEDIA
  Emphasizes how often a reporter covers restricted events, not what kind of media organization they're with. Worth a read.
- Beat Writer Continues Nationals Coverage, Sans Newspaper
  The Nationals beat writer was laid off by the Washington Post, so what's he do? Starts up his own blog, which blows up and gets $5,000 in donations for coverage.
- The evolution of lasvegassun.com's homepage strategy - more importantly, does a nice design negatively impact traffic?
  Interesting look at how Las Vegas Sun's home page designs and how they affected Web traffic.
- Eight key terms for determining legitimacy in journalism
  Excellent post, especially when paired with the traditional "credentials" of an Old Print reporter.

I write about the future of journalism and ways to integrate new media into newsrooms.
