Description

It's newspapers, magazines, and books versus blogs, webzines, and e-books in this program as host Jian Ghomeshi addresses issues ranging from the popularity of citizen journalism, to the growing shift in advertiser dollars from print to the Web, to the whole Google Book Search controversy. Multiple points of view are represented by blogosphere luminaries Cory Doctorow and David Pescovitz (Boing Boing), Markos Moulitsas Zuniga (Daily Kos), and Heather B. Armstrong (Dooce); representatives of The New York Times; Bob Stein, director of the Institute for the Future of the Book; intellectual property attorney Fred von Lohmann, for the Electronic Frontier Foundation; Brewster Kahle, a digital librarian with the Open Content Alliance; Internet icons Jimmy Wales and Craig Newmark; and others.
