Elephants dance 2: Reuters pile on

| | Comments (0)

Tom Biro posts about a forum hosted by Reuters next week on blogs and the media.
Sample question: Are bloggers journalists? Should they be afforded the same rights as journalists?
Jay Rosen and Dave Winer will lead a crew of corporate folk in what will no doubt be a familiar catcheism.
I will be in DC that day, or I would probably show up and sulk, maddened there were no women on the panel and annoyed at myself for caring.
This is how you know the bubble is back---corporate entities want to host discussions on topics that others have been discussing ad nauseum--only now that the bwanas are interested, they have enough muscle to get the natives dancing again.

Ouch, that was mean. Maybe the meanest post I've written in a while.
Time to cut back on the conferences, for sure.
