This week's podcast with Jay Rosen

Sunday, April 12, 2009 by Dave Winer.

I spent 40 minutes this evening talking with Jay about news, tech and the future of journalism. As always it was a great learning experience with the NYU journalism professor. Permalink to this paragraph

A frequently asked question -- what feed should I subscribe to to get the flow? The answer -- the feed for Scripting News. When I do a podcast it's included as a standard RSS 2.0 enclosure. Permalink to this paragraph

At the end of the show I promised to create a room on FriendFeed to post links to stories we'll discuss on future shows.  Permalink to this paragraph
