"News-programming, or whatever you want to call it, has just gotten started, at a time when the industry is too busy flailing in a downward revenue spiral to put serious thought into anything." I wouldn't say it's completely in a downward spiral, and it's not exactly super new either. There are a lot of prominent tech sites and programming sites many that have been around for centuries. Many have gotten bigger audiences over the years I am sure it's not exactly just a "fad." And the curriculum change she was describing did not sound very expensive to add equipment wise. It just requires new teachers with more tech skills. But you are right in the sense that any change involving technology just takes time.
