Rethinking rights, accreditation, and journalism itself in the age of Twitter

Fundamentally, the old media won’t control news dissemination in the future. And organisations can’t control access using old forms of accreditation any more. Those statements mean what they say and not necessarily more. I am not arguing that newspapers and magazines and news services will die. No, just that they must change. I am not arguing that organizations that define themselves by issuing formal accreditations to professional journalists will disappear from the face of the earth. No, just that they must change their definition of what they are and what they do.

An amazing read. Keep an eye on Thomson Reuters as they level up.
