My takeaway is that both newsrooms and nonjournalists need to adapt. A new lock-and-key relationship will appear; we just don’t know what it will be. In general, newsrooms don’t need more “opinions” from the public; they need to know what people observe. And the nonjournalists need to learn how to describe what they see without feeling that their words must rise to the level of professional journalism. Newsrooms should change internally to work with this new material and they can help create the environment in which regular folks can learn how to play their part.

There is still a need — and will continue to be a need — for professionally trained reporters and writers, but we are not sure where they will fit in to the new information mix.

The article has some colorful quotes, but very little useful information in how to actually accomplish these goals.
