Doc Searls on the Future of Media

The Doc Searls Weblog : Tuesday, December 14, 2004: "See, I think the future of periodical publishing, and of journalism itself, will be built mostly by individual bloggers and indivdidual blogs, and by a new breed of publishers who harvest and republish (and, yes, pay for) goods from the wide open ranges where bloggers roam, and post, free. The day will come when the top print publications will be comprised of prose and pictures provided by blogs and bloggers.
The same thing will happen with television. And music. Movies too. (Although the rights-clearing mess is a huge hold-up there.)"
