End closing in for Salon Media Group
Salon May Not Survive Beyond February
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Online magazine publisher Salon Media Group Inc. warned that it may not survive beyond this month if it can't raise more money to pay its rent and other bills.
Looks like my daily shot of indepdenent journalism is going to get weaker. I know Doc Searls and many in the blog community praise blogs as independent media but how do you weed through the trash. A service needs to exist which could categorize or weed out some of the trash out there. A crowd with a million voices is a powerful one but when everyone is saying something different, it's impossible to make sifting through the trash worthwhile.
I know there are attempts to do linking through things like the blog ecosphere and technoratti but maybe there are too many hands in the cookie jar. On the other hand, perhaps people just want to look for a certain select few they wish to follow and that's good enough.
