Christopher Lydon Interviews (with Enclosures)Interviews by Chris Lydon as an RSS feed with enclosuresStirling Newberry part 2- October 28, 2003 Part two of Chris Lydon's interview with Stirling Newberry.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/28#a399 Stirling Newberry part 1- October 27, 2003 He is the blogger who wrote earlier this month: "By the time you read these words the bell will be tolling for Wesley Clark's candidacy." And thus he crystallized a contest between people who drafted Clark and those who manage him; between analog and digital politics; between the Pyramid and the Sphere, as Newberry likes to illustrate it.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/27#a397 Scott Heiferman- October 21, 2003 Scott Heiferman, 31, has become a central figure in the new Internet politics of 2004 on the strength of his magnetic Meetup.com. With a few professional partners in programming, Heiferman built the Meetup site that lets birds of a feather find and meet each other face-to-face in their own town or neighborhood -- for any reason at all, but with earthshaking force already in presidential campaigns.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/21#a390 Jeff Jarvis- October 6, 2003 Jeff Jarvis of Advance Publications, the Newhouse empire, was the other corporate media biggie at BloggerCon, making rather a striking contrast with the gentleman from The New York Times, Len Apcar. At BuzzMachine, of course, Jeff Jarvis is himself a voluminous and often counterintiutive blogger. He's a liberal who was radicalized by September 11 and cheered the War in Iraq.

He wrote TV criticism for People magazine and TV Guide, and...http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/06#a364 Len Apcar- October 6, 2003 Editor in chief of The New York Times on the Web, Len Apcar brought Times majesty to BloggerCon this weekend, and a certain blog envy, too. Listen to Apcar and make your own guess how long it will be before the New York Times (the online edition) certifies the sea change in media with its own Times-style blog about opera, or art, or more likely, about the 2004 presidential campaign.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/06#a362 Jay Rosen- October 4, 2003 For more than a decade Jay Rosen has been a frustrated advocate of people-first, bottom-up "public journalism." The premise of his project (and his book, What Are Journalists For) was that, as an act of civic conscience, major media might abandon the celebrity circus approach to covering, for example, presidential campaigns. The idea was laughed at, left for dead after the 1996 season. Yet now, strangely, he believes we're in sight of real public journalism -- not as a matter of corporate or.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/04#a361 Adam Curry- October 3, 2003 Adam Curry was born into stardom on MTV in the late 1980s. As the VJ host of the network's "Top 20 Countdown," he interviewed stars like Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney, and became himself an all-around pop icon. Adam Curry today is still 6 feet 5 inches of blond Adonis, but his conversation and his work all crackle with his lifelong interest the hardware of communications.http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/03#a360 |
