Nick Jones: Newspapers approach to video gives them exclusive edge | Journalism.co.uk Editors' Blog
Nick Jones, former BBC political correspondent, joined panellists Iain Dale and Paul Staines aka Guido Fawkes at the Foregin Press Association yesterday, where the impact of new media on newsgathering and reporting was discussed.
Further to Dale’s comments on blogging and political journalism, Jones added that audio and video material appearing on newspaper websites is ’stretching journalism in the way it should be stretched’.
“Newspapers are making money out of video and audio. They are buying up exclusive material obtained in dubious circumstances – but it is getting good ratings,” said Jones.
