I just now read all three pieces. And while I agree with you that these are all great concepts and ideas *in theory* (and you did cite examples of how these things are already happening) I'm left to wonder how- if ever- will this get wrangled into a real, certifiable and efficient news model? I've obviously got little faith in PennLive and The Patriot-News *as an institution* but know full-well the power and effectiveness of a well written, consistent blog. I guess my question is- will Advance Publications craft an entirely new Website tailored to embrace the new media? Or will PennLive continue to disgrace itself by hanging onto a dead format? I believe it's high time for a completely new and independent news source- here in Harrisburg AND nationwide- but that requires a huge investment. Dan-
