From We’re All Journalists Now: The Transformation of the Press and Reshaping of the Law in the Internet Age by Scott Gant.
"The Web makes it possible for citizens to think in public together. That is not a fad. That is the underlying reality of the news industry for the next 30 to 50 years." — Lew Friedland, University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Journalism
"We must no longer accept uncritically the idea that professional journalists can be anointed with special perks and protections denied to others engaging in essentially the same activities" — Scott Gant
