RJI PICTURED

What is journalism in the new medium of the Web? What are its values and functions in a participatory democracy? We plan to make signs out of these slogans and put them around the Fred W. Smith Forum. The purpose is to remind us that we're entering a new medium, and to help us focus on journalism in the new medium. Here's what we've come up with so far.
