Social media and on-line communities are more democratic than traditional journalism, however we miss out on an important form of journalism: investigative journalism. Wikileaks fills a void, but is dependent on security exploitation. In the future we will potentially miss out on a valuable occupation. Perhaps corporate/government sponsorship for investigative journalism is the way forward.
