For those hoping that the in-depth journalism of the near future doesn’t only revolve around Storifies:
Poynter held a symposium in October that hoped to discuss the ethics of journalism in the digital age. Instead of hopping into the usual conversations about accuracy and objectivity, several journos wrote about how preoccupied they became with discussing the formation of a new depth and humanity to digital pieces.

Craig Silverman argues that journalism should always be rooted in empathy, not technology, and another Poynter piece shows journalism compassion in action in a piece about life on a South Dakota Indian reservation.
