The information monopoly once held by mainstream media has all but disappeared. Today, "citizen journalists" (ie. anyone with a cell phone, laptop and personal opinion) have carved out a growing chuck of the news and information business. But, is the growing number of opinionated blogs and tweets a responsible substitute for mainstream news organizations that come with a degree of public accountability?
Norman Stowe, Managing Partner of the Pace Group will lead a panel presentation that brings together social and mainstream media in a lively debate over whose news is news.
