I don't think that old media people have to give any bloggers respect unless they think they are doing a great job. I do feel the established media does have to go more extreme (but not in the Fake Steve Jobs sense, the can continue to cover their beat). Magazines are dying by the time they go all the way through the editorial process, through the presses and then through the mail, it's stuff bloggers were writing about 3 weeks ago or more. This is great, it focuses my argument a bit - for example I believe that PC Magazine could smoke a tech site like Engadget, they have a better infrastructure, talented writers, labs, etc. The question is, can they change gears?

When you talk about old media guys who "get" new media, do you think that the only way that they can survive is through such extreme measures? Or do you think that recognizing and revering (some) bloggers as peers is enough? Found your blog over at Chris Brogan’s place.
