Pravda, uplynulo už mnoho vody od doby, kdy jsme uspořádali tento seminář. Přesto bych nerad, aby zapadl. I na našem webu (www.ctk.cz) je na něj odkaz poměrně hodně zapadlý a kdo neví, co hledá, tak ho sotva najde. Myslím, že je dobré na něj upozornit i s takovýmto zpožděním i proto, že v některých rozhovorech, které jsem po něm dával, jsou na něj odkazy. Seminář jsme uspořádali proto, že […]

Rozhovor ve Strategii
Zdraví ČTK je závislé na zdraví médií Že je Twitter rychlý a sociální sítě mocné, o tom už dnes nikdo nepochybuje.

My view is that these two branches have certain elements common and actually need each other. And both need to reform. That […]
News Agencies and Photos
As a News Agency you generally do not want to become news. You are there to bring the news, not to be a subject. Especially not if this is for the wrong reasons, like the doctored photo from an Iranian rocket launch Iranian News Agency (IRNA) published and then had to retract. See here the New York Times story. Or when Chinese news agency had to apologise for something far […]
Agencies as the new newspapers?
Jeff Jarvis made interesting comments here regarding new division of “labour” in the internet age, in this case among newspapers and Google (or somebody – Google is a metaphor).

They should no longer be in the manufacturing and distribution businesses — which have become heavy cost yokes […]
