This is amazing. Must memorize. Where did I hide my index cards?
• Comments are worthless vitriol and they degrade the work of journalists.
• Never link to your competitors, you’re just giving them traffic!
• Social media is a fad. Investing in it now will be a waste of time and money when it all goes bottom-up.
• A blog is not a tool for journalism, it is for people in robes writing about their cats.
• Citizen journalists suck. They’re biased! They have opinions and everything. Act like they own politics.

Don’t forget to forward me anything you hear that isn’t already on the list! I’m pretty good at answering them, but I sure don’t hear the complaints as often as many others do.
Thanks for the link love ;)
