From The Other Perfesser: William Jacobson has some insights on the latest moves by internet media. Worth reading: I suppose the founder of First Look Media, who also was the founder of eBay, doesn't much care if he loses tens of millions of dollar to buy ego-journalists, but what about the others. How will traditional media deal with the raising of everyone's boat from the combination of ego-journalism and superlative-mania? The bidding up of mostly mediocre journalism has to end badly. Bubble always do end badly. And no one expects it. |
