Parachuting in on this thread… I’m following Christina Bellatoni’s (WashTimes) twitter. She’s at Columbia U. graduation…

Some lovely quotes from Pres. Lee Bollinger…

“”Crisis in journalsim a crisis in democracy” & laments “shallow opinion mongering” not to be taken lightly”

“unlikely the lone blogger could have had the wearwithal” to do Pulitzer level work”

“”there will have to be new sources of funding” for press, lauds BBC, other govt supported news”

“”Must see foreign press as our press too” talks censorship, calls 4 press 2 have “full unfettered” access 2 war zones”
