Techdirt Podcast Episode 201: Can Journalism Survive A Free Market?
from the no-business-like-news-business dept
It's no secret that journalism outfits are struggling, and have been for some time.

This week, Mike is joined on the podcast by someone whose opinions on this question differ significantly from his own — Columbia Journalism professor and former online editor-in-chief of the Guardian Emily Bell — to talk about whether journalism can survive the free market, and what the alternatives are.
