The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
The Los Angeles Times goes multimedia
03/21/2003 12:14 AM The Los Angeles Times goes
multimedia. For the past few weeks, the LA Times has begun a
significant push into offering video, audio, and interactive Flash on
their website. One of the most interesting aspects is that the paper
has moved one step beyond simply replaying AP Television clips as many
sites have done; the LA Times writers are stand before the cameras and
microphones themselves and report stories in a stuttering,
non-hairsprayed, introverted demeanor that I find very refreshing,
though so far I have gleaned very little additional information from
it. When does (or can) this mode of journalism on the web rise above
gimmickry or 'just because we can' and add value to a written article?
Can video/tv news rise above mere spectacle?
