The Advantage Of Citizen Journalism

By Kleinheider Posted on July 19, 2009 at 6:18 pm

“People who don’t want to deal with reporters can dodge an e-mail or a phone call, but they get their salaries from the American taxpayer. They claim to be ‘public servants,’ so they don’t have much choice in the matter when a citizen-journalist walks in the front door and says, ‘Serve me.’”
