On April 29, 2011 · 2 Comments

First of all: A big ‘thank you’ to reddit users. It’s thrilling to see this kind of response and I’m sure this will only result in more outreach from public media.

A Nuclear Cloud of Coverage Over Japan’s Dead

On April 28, 2011 · Leave a Comment

The Fukushima Daichi story, one that portends a disaster (whether or not it is classified as a disaster is not in question, but rather stories about ‘worst’ and ‘growing’ fears of a more dramatic meltdown event), has far eclipsed the incredible human toll of the Japanese Tsunami.

CPB is defunded for good. Now what? #hypothetical

On March 15, 2011 · 2 Comments

It’s not – at least yet. This is analysis, not a normative or cautionary statement. It’s also not the only future that could play out: there must be other, better options.

What would happen if the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a 40+ year survivor of many political designs on its existence, were finally fatally [...]

Object-Oriented Storytelling

On March 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment

One of the major challenges we wanted to tackle with the PBS News project is how we syndicate rich stories. Not multimedia packages, not playlists, and certainly not ‘rich’ articles, but visually compelling, narrative-true structures of content.

Geoblog of our cross-country road trip

On July 13, 2010 · Leave a Comment

For our big move to the west coast, Morgan and I decided to shoot at least every 100 miles to built out a geoblog of our adventure. We didn’t have as much time as we would have wanted, but this helped capture just a bit of the beauty and diversity we saw driving across this [...]

Networked information economies and political morality

On April 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

In Yochai Benkler’s Toward a Political Economy of Information, he examines the prospective impact of a shift from what he calls an “industrial information economy” to a “networked information economy.” In this networked economy, the centralized production and distribution of information is challenged as networked individuals connect as engage users that actively participate in, create [...]

Analysis: Online Public Affairs and Public Media

On March 12, 2010 · Leave a Comment
