=BACKGROUND PAGE: Journalism That Matters -- the DC Sessions: ''What will happen when only the journalism is left?''=
This is the wiki home for the Aug. 7-8, 2007 convening of ''Journalism That Matters: The DC Sessions'' at The George Washington University, and the followup discussions and activities.
 
THE CONVENING QUESTIONS: 

"What happens when only the journalism is left?" Strip away the platforms, the jobs, the institutions, and what will sustain participatory democracy? Are we advancing to a news ecosystem more like English coffeehouses and pamphleteering than mass media? What happens when the "press" becomes a digital "pipe"? Who controls the press then? 

<hr>
The [http://www.journalismthatmatters.org Journalism that Matters] action-oriented discussions are an ongoing series of activities and convenings to critique and build upon a 21st-century newsroom prototype and help develop an economic model that supports it. Together we are answering these crucial questions: If advertising and journalism continue to decouple, how can we ensure that quality journalism will have its own intrinsic value? How will our newsrooms and classrooms adapt to the new news ecology in which credentialed bloggers cover federal-court proceedings, vloggers go to prison in defense of First Amendment principles and crowdsourcing blossoms?

====Subtexts====
*Charting new economic models
*Engaging the next generation
*Defining the citizen/media connection

or:

*How will it be supported?
*How will it be taught?
