Direct Journalism
by Cem Basman
Michael J. Totten has made an experiment in journalism:
I decided to try a little experiment. Instead of lining up an assignment from an editor to cover Northern Iraqi Kurdistan, I struck out on my own without asking permission from anyone. Almost all my material was posted directly to this Web site. I wanted to see if the amount of money I can raise from readers competes with the industry’s going rate.It does.
I call it "Direct Journalism".

interessanter Beitrag; die Adresse ist in meinen Favourites gelandet. Danke, Cem.
Yeah, it's hard to stop reading once you start. Sounds like a lot of fun! Wonder if I could do that and go somewhere like the Bahamas or Kiwi or something like that?

GRIPPING and intense! ;-)
