journalist As if something fascinates me about the is that social networks have become a genuine area of \u200b\u200bdebate of analysis and self of this profession. Suddenly, it seems that everyone is interested in talking about this work of ours, to review, in opening the doors for anyone to express their ideas freely. Beyond the specific events can be held in the real world, almost always under the scheme and public speaker who speaks you listen, here, social networks, and especially in Twitter , we all have something to say, young and old, expert or beginner, unemployed or working in poor or wealthy, teachers and students ... It is wonderful to see how, contrary of what might appear before there was digital this parallel world, yes we want to talk about journalism, where will this work, whether we are useful or not, whether there is a future for the paper or if everything will be cooked on the Internet. Any subject is open to debate.
And best of all, they are, in most cases, younger people who hold the reins of these debates. Are the new generations the 2.0, who have broken taboos and dare everything. And show us the digital natives do not come stomping, strong, and are willing to move the chair to the fat asses who occupy them for years.
And is that young journalists -and not so young, admittedly well-being not only leading the way, but showing it. They move, they point to the car of the new professions, are capable of taking half of Spain attending any event on the industry, organized events such as these magical # cafeperiodismo, # EBE, # NCB Medialab ... That is, as never before generational change now has stepped on so strong. And worst of all is that many of these entrepreneurs bursting with ideas, projects, not wait ... are unemployed or in precarious jobs. And many have decided to stage their own risk their time and money.
Meanwhile, in newsrooms of the mainstream media do not do more than criticize scholars who left the horns do the job of a senior charging what I already earned nearly two decades ago when I started as an intern. "These young people are not like we were, not thrown forward, no blood" we say. And although some people will not have it, it seems clear that many of them are more prepared than us, have more training, have studied abroad, know languages \u200b\u200bare handled seamlessly into the digital world, etc. But we have work-for now they do not.
While we are in the hands of people not because they do not know just turn on a computer, but viewed with suspicion the digital media watching Internet as an enemy rather than as an indispensable ally, which considers the social networking game if not a waste of time, who thinks he is better journalist by spending 14 hours in a newspaper even though half of them move from Charleta peer smoking at the door ... while all this happening it is possible to continue that when new generations reach the top, this profession is so bad that it has no cure.
