“The Pronetarian Revolution”,
Not only in Romania are the readers comparing the ‘traditional’ media with the blogosphere. In his interview for EurActiv, Joël de Rosnay, author of “The Pronetarian Revolution”, is talking about the road “from mass media to media of the masses”:
Another reason behind the mass media crisis is of course the increasing success of Internet and especially the creation of information by internet-users themselves. The blog phenomenon, interactive websites, P2P and personal diaries have contributed to flooding the Net with quality information that is extremely diverse but often original, giving a new angle to the news.
Media of the masses carry more nuances than classical media. Citizens recognise themselves in the multitude of diverse expressions, relayed by blogs inter-connected by RSS, a surprising amplification system. The “buzz” between internet-users can make opinions move, much more than traditional political campaigns using the big classical media.
We can easily recognize the same discussions that took place these days between some Romanian bloggers and the journalists.
