A top TV news anchor recently protested when a panelist on his programme mentioned that one could get lot of information on Google. "I am not a Google journalist," the anchor said loudly.
My question is: What is wrong in being a Google journalist?
I would also like to ask: why cant we get ourselves prepared with the ready-to-use information (or research!) and do our interviews?
Also: Don't many journalists or even PR professionals find Google very useful when they have to do homework?
Gone are the days when one had to wade through tones of files and old newspaper clippings for reference material. With keyword search, we get what we want in less than two seconds.
Let's debate the pros and cons of Google search facility, for the benefit of those who proclaim that they are not Google journalists.
