Roy Peter Clark offers a challenge to journalists and citizens: Read the newspaper. The print edition. He characterizes this as a duty we must embrace as we face an ever-shifting media landscape. Here’s his essay: http://www.poynter.org/column.asp?id=101&aid=129470.
Of course journalists ought to be reading newspapers every day. As an editor at The Eagle, I have a duty every day to read our paper. But that said, I and everyone else in our newsroom have a duty to do what we can to make the paper and the content on our website so compelling that readers, including those of us in the newsroom, feel drawn to read it out every day.
