OK, so here is a question, at what point does a person with a blog become a journalist?
A blogger was sent to prison today for failing to turn over a video that prosecutors claim has footage of a group of people vandalizing a police car. He is claiming that he is a journalist and has the right to keep some information private. http://news.com.com/Blogger+jailed+after+defying+court+orders/2100-1028_3-61 01187.html Two things, first, this may contain footage of a crime that occurred in a public place, even if the guy were a journalist, should it still be protected? Is this equal to not revealing a source? 2nd, Can a person that has a day job, that writes a blog be considered a journalist? What is a journalist? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:212328 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
