The video below should tell you all you need to know about the state of media right now. Recently on HBO’s Costas Now there was a fascinating breakdown, heated debate and sometimes not-suitable-for-work discussion over the sea change that is sweeping over the media industry.
I’m a huge fan of Will Leitch and Deadspin, as well as Buzz Bissinger. What this video really illustrates is a generational gap and a debate over where value lies in journalism. Does value lie in the speed and sometimes brutal honesty of blogging or is it in the time-honored craft of reporting and filling a beat. Probably somewhere in between. Enjoy.
