Peck: “The news brain no longer resides in newsrooms alone”

Memphis Commercial Appeal
Commercial Appeal editor Chris Peck says news for the 21st century will be generated by the people who are chosen, not the chosen people; will be more a conversation about making sense of the world, less of a sermon from on high; and will rely on the wisdom of the many, not the insight of the few, with journalists being knowledge leaders.
