Some things I have learned.

It's clear to see the web is demanding and incoming into the future of journalism. It seems the new key is how to go about that successfully without harming your income and advertising. Although many see newspapers as dying, I was told yesterday that newspapers will not die. Print editions will live through. Web may be rising, but that does not harm the newspaper. Its a matter of classification, buying, selling and ecomony. To my surprise, the newspaper industry is very complex and holds a great deal of economic backgroung and statistics. The best advice thus far: As a journalist always post the question "who are you going to trust" and make sure you are a trustworthy reporter. My second piece of advice learned: Never view video as being something that is video or audio as audio... think of it as being videojournalism or audiojournalism... although it is on the web and not print you are still conveying journalism.
