Tim tried to question whether corporate-placed stories really counted as journalism, saying “it it news or publicity?”, but Matt responded, “it’s news to someone.” Heidi and Matt also agreed that it was very important to be first with a story, because that’s how you get the hits. Me, I’d rather be better, with a unique perspective or some time to reflect on importance of something that’s happened, but we’ve already established that we’re playing in two very different ballparks. (Stuart Moore nicely splits the baby in comments at Heidi’s post.)
