Summary: In this article, a Mashable writer newly arrived at NYU journalism school bemoans old-thinking in her professors and classmates. Highlight: The comments are full of responses from established journalists, who point out that her "work" for Mashable is largely just copy-pasting press releases and lifting images from other sites. The writer is really confused as to why she's the only student in her class actively blogging somewhere. The answers pretty simple, why write for free when you aim to get paid to do it? That's the prevailing opinion among journalists. There's really no equivalent to open source among journalists.
