The Future of Journalism

A place for a rational discussion of how people of good will can save the news business from itself, and return civil discourse and the search for truth into the fabric of the American experience.

About Me

Location: Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland

In September of 2009, 70 American college sophomores traveled to Lausanne, Switzerland, for a year of study. Through this blog, we'll post reflections on what we learn about this beautiful country and its multi-lingual culture, and about what it is like to live in a community of scholars. We're on an adventure. We hope you enjoy some of our reflections.

Kill Objectivity?

Michael Kinsley, writing in Slate, says it's time to kill the notion of objectivity. Kinsley calls objectivity "less an ideal than a conceit." The former (and short-lived) editor of the editorial pages of the L.A. Times makes an interesting argument worth debating. One hopes he is dead wrong! (Thanks to Romanesko for the post.)
