For IP and those who have watched the Flash presentation:
If, as the presentation asserts, the 4th Estate crawls off the web
and back
onto the printed page, what will power the hard news engine of
Google? It
seems to me that a core component of the Media future the presentation
authors see will be missing, making their Epic and Newsbotster
constructs
worthless as a source of "hard" news.
In short, I see a need for professional writers and editors far into the
foreseeable future.

You might want to share this with the IP list. It is an extremely
well-done Flash presentation and, while perhaps a bit simplistic, it
offers a very interesting perspective on what might be happening to
the media in the future.

Some will rob you with a six-gun / And some with a fountain pen.
