I just learned from Jeff Jarvis' BuzzMachine (Waiting for the pencil) that Michael Rosenblum, who gave a terrific keynote at last week's Public Media 2007 conference, has a weblog -- and a good one. Check out these posts about the print media as video competitors (also see the BuzzMachine link above for more on this subject).
A Tale of One City, which ends:
And that takes us back to our west coast city. Out there, the local paper is aggresively moving to both the web and video on the web.

Maybe they are missing the biggest story the paper has to tell….
