Frontline - News Wars

Frontline's series on the changes in news reporting, dissemination and consumption was some of the best television reporting I've seen in a while. The final installment focused on online news and the LA Times struggles to stay a player. The program emphasis on the problem of how news organization content quality is being compromised by focus on the bottom line and the stratification of the audience indicates a sea change in news creation and distribution. The next five years should be an incredible ride as the deck is shuffled.
