I was fascinated by this piece. Example: "Society doesn’t need newspapers. What we need is journalism." I waited for him to cite the example of the BBC as a model that could survive the Internet revolution... but he didn't, surely because in the USA there is no equivalent. I concur with his viewpoint that business models are being broken faster than new ones can be invented. Sean. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
