Citizen Journalism: From Pamphlet to Blog

April 25, 2007 · Share This · 1 Comment

Cambridge Community Television hosted a 3-month documentary production course that resulted in this short documentary on Citizen Journalism.

The 15-minute documentary Citizen Journalism: From Pamphlet to Blog is a guide to US citizen journalism through the ages - from Thomas Paine in the 18th century to the more modern hows and whys of being an anti-establishment news hound.

The film features interviews with talking heads from the blogging world - including Ethan Zuckerman of Global Voices - discussing, among other things, how newspapers have gone through major cost-cutting exercises as their revenues are leeched by sites like Craigslist.

    great video. Wished the ads would quit rolling over on the page. Makes it difficult to watch the entire video. I had to restart and find where I left off at least four times.

Got something to say?
