CNN.com: The demise of old media is greatly exaggerated - Feb. 14, 2007
At the Kidscreen Media Conference last week, a number of colleagues and I were discussing the hyper-critical coverage of children's media in the traditional print press. One executive suggested that print writers are threatened by digital media, and bring that bias to their coverage.
It reminded me of a quote that I've always loved from David Lee Roth, back when he was the lead singer of Van Halen. Roth said: Do you know why music critics write glowing reviews about Elvis Costello? Because music critics LOOK like Elvis Costello.
The person I read on the topic of digital/social media is Mary Hodder, founder of dabble.com. She is a big thinker.
