"Hierarchies, both within the profession of journalism as well as between journalism and its audiences are flattening. Employers in the news industry turn their organizations into “shell” or “zombie” institutions: alive with production, but dead with (waged) producers. The work that journalists do has become immaterial, and must be seen in conjunction with the “free labor” of news and information-producing “networked publics,” suggesting the emergence of a “long tail” for news. Amplified by trends online, a journalism without journalists is, in a traditional sense, a source of concern indeed. However, when seen through the critical lens of journalisms’ cosy relationship with society’s elite institutions (including itself) and the potential of re-engagement with a self-organizing and selfproducing citizenry, perhaps a journalism without journalists is exactly what we need."
