Pixelated Semantics

Then we've got the "citizen journalism" trend, where members of the public end up contributing to a publisher's news product, adding a new and deeper (micro-local) element to existing staff coverage. Assuming that starts to take hold in news organizations -- and I'm convinced it will -- then we're looking at "compensating" citizens to take part. (Perhaps not with money, but with other enticements.) The paid-subscription model for newspaper just doesn't fit with that.
