Social Media, the Media, and T&T

Camera Self Portrait When I was reading a discussion related to social media/blogs in Trinidad and Tobago, someone made a point that gave me pause. The point was that without newspapers, local blogs would be dead in the water.

Is Blogging Journalism?

Someone on Facebook who asked to remain anonymous asked me the following question:

Blogging seems like fun. I ought to start one day... when I have time. Our government is actually proving to be a strong motivator for me to start. I just have to learn where journalism draws the line (I mean, ranting online that the PM is a @#$%hole is probably not journalism). Or do I have a misconception, that blogging/social commentary is not journalism?

That's a good question. And there's no easy answer.
