Clinamen

My good friend Doug Freeman at the Austin Chronicle has posted what I think is a dead on assessment of how print journalism (in this case, music journalism) is missing the boat:

"The continued waning of print publications’ resources and influence is undoubtedly due to the rise of the Internet, in much the same way the CD-based music business has been felled by online capabilities. This loss of influence is not due to the rise of blogs, however, but rather the inability of print publications to largely adjust to the Web, to transform either their content, style, or influence to a new medium, much to detriment of [music] criticism itself."
