This article talks about the future of social media in journalism. "Social" approach will overshadow the traditional journalism in the near future, according to the article. It also talks about collaborative reporting as a growing trend. We can already see the a merger between the source and the content producer, and soon the reporting will be done by the witnesses of the news. I agree that is where reporting and journalism are going. However, does this mean there will be no need for "professional" journalists if all the reporting is done by witness?
