Though I'm pretty sure I didn't make 'the traditional accusation that [news organisations have lost the public's confidence] because they have lost the customer’s trust'. I could be misinterpreting what you mean, but if what you're saying is that mainstream media are losing readers / viewers because there are more alternatives, then I agree. As far as trust goes, rather than losing the public's trust I'd argue that many news outlets have never enjoyed much public trust.

I too liked the idea that it is the public that will save the press for the public and that it will do so in a way detached from the industry's traditonal notions of what journalism should be. I for one find this a very exciting prospect. Hi Charlie,
