"Journalism is the first rough draft of history"

Journalism, as defined by the ever-trusty Wikipedia, is 'the activity or profession of writing for newspapers or magazines, or of broadcasting news on radio or television'...

One might call this vague or constricting, I call it dated. 

Welcome to 2012. 

A world where old media is dying and the internet dominates. Where there are more people on facebook than there were on the planet 200 years ago. And where journalism is difficult, if not impossible, to define. 

So, it is here, on the grounds of this rather ambiguous and ever-changing field, that I begin my blog.
