Citizen journalism: does it mean democratised media or a decline in journalistic standards? What’s the difference in quality between blogging and academic writing or serious print journalism? Is the concept of ‘quality’ merely elitist, exclusive and undemocratic? In other words, does ‘quality’ conflict with ‘equality’ on the internet? Is there such a thing as objectivity or does all writing and research reflect the author’s own perspective and bias? While women may feel freer to express themselves in blogs or elsewhere on the internet, does this mean that they are any safer from attack – that is, from male violence in the form of verbal abuse?
Have your say!
