NYTimes.com Chief: Rules of Television Journalism "Don't Work on the Web"........and David "Carpetbagger" Carr is the Paper's First Video Star

The traditional rules of television journalism don't necessarily work on the Web, says Vivian Schiller, general manager of the NYTimes.com

Schiller, a veteran of years in television news and documentary production at CNN and Discovery, explains how the Web is redefining the way that video journalism works.

For example, while television news generally avoids using talking heads and close-ups, these are effective on the Web. Quick-cut editing and conventional story telling are not always essential for Web video.

Pogue_2 She says that New York Times reporters are asking for cameras. They want to be trained to shoot and edit. She says video is catching on as reporters understand that video is a way to get an angle on a story that "you can't possibly get to in print."

This year, The New York Times published 1000 original videos of various forms in 2006. She is a big fan of the tech columnist David Pogue.

David Carr, A New Kind of Video Star

She give kudos to media reporter/columnist David Carr, who writes the Carpetbagger blog during the three month run-up to the Academy Awards. He blogs nearly every day and posts around one video clip a week.

She dubs the media columnist "our first homegrown personality" emerging from original video work.

Earlier today, The Times published the season's first video of the Carpetbagger. In most of the segments, David is an "outsider" who hangs out with the masses in Times Square and fans beyond the velvet rope of the glittery events he covers. In this one he rides around Manhattan in a limo with award winning director Mira Nair. Let's hope keeps that he keeps that outsider attitude and doesn't get swept up by hanging too closely with the stars!

vidkidxyz I agree - this woman is more than a crap bird - she is a threat to American Society.

[vidkidxyz]

Why is this person talking? She has NO integrity... she has NO credibility.... she has NO legitimacy... She is nothing more than a paid "Schill"-er.. a puppet on a string doing the bidding of her masters.. So again... WHY IS SHE TALKING?

[fmckadoo]

Hmm, her educational background is in studies of a failed Soviet nation, her experience at the NY Times was running the failure of NYtimes.com. She now runs NPR and handles her first crises like this? Guess failure is built into her life experience. BTW - I hear the NY times dot com venture is realing picking up steam since she left.

Wait a minute. She thinks he steps over the line, so she steps over the line. How did she miss this ethical transgression that should have been synthesized as wrong,wrong,wrong at the latest,by the time she finished middle school. In her current position she has one option only. Apologize to Juan Williams face to face

after rehabilitating her own thought processes.

has to

[explainingwhy]

IMAMS lie [VERIFY @w w w faithfreedom org] because Islam has no truth for Muslims to speak truthfully.

Hence:

1] Muslims[i e Imam Rauf] speak LYINGLY to deceive all

2] Evil men become Muslim terrorists to advance themselves for greed by usurping authorities using Sharia laws to coerce all Muslims making them terrorists too

3] Fearful people[Vivian Schiller] are easily coerced into siding Islam

4] Jesus says in Rev 21:8 "THE FEARFUL & THE LIARS will go to hell to await judgement'.

AMEN
