I am currently taking a class called the "Law of Public Communication." We have discussed some of the issues that have been brought about by the ever increasing use of new media. How much freedom do we, as individuals, have to post whatever we want on our blogs and how much protection are bloggers afforded in for example a libel suit?
The crux of these questions becomes, are bloggers journalists? Can some independent bloggers be journalists while others are simply posting what they think on the internet? How can bloggers be held accountable?
After discussing this is class, I decided to ask you, the professionals,...what do you think, are bloggers journalists?
