Dan Rather on the current and future state of the news media

The man who to me was the face of news for most of my life, chimed in on the past present and future of the news media last weekend on Air America‘s Ring of Fire radio show.

Dan Rather, to launch a weekly investigative news program on HDNet next month, had a lot of interesting things to say.

Definitely worth a listen, so go and check it out.

The Rather interview starts a little more than halfway through the above clip.
If anyone is interested in more of what other luminaries (Koppel, Thomas, Suskind, etc.) have to say on the subject of our ailing fourth estate, I’d heartily recommend Kristina Borjesson’s “Feet to the Fire: The Media After 9/11.“

Matt, you seem to know a lot about blogs. I tried to post a photo on my blog this morning and it didn’t work. I followed all of the steps, uploaded it, dragged it, etc. but it wouldn’t post. Any suggestions?
