A turning point in journalism?
War correspondent Kevin Sites, a veteran broadcast journalist, has been hired by Yahoo to “provide a unique, multimedia perspective on some of the world’s most troubled and dangerous places.” He’ll be embarking on a “yearlong journey as a solo journalist to cover every armed conflict in the world.”
Very, very cool. Blogs and independently-produced media can be much more effective — more personal, more hard-hitting — than traditional mainstream coverage. I expect great things from Sites.
