"Rarely can a single person excel at so many skill sets"
- Steve Herman, South Asia correspondent, Voice of America
Steve Herman, delivering his address at the seminar on Convergence in Media at St Xavier's College, Mapusa, spoke about the perils and challenges that technology has thrown at media houses and journalists.
Does asking a single journalist to work in multiple media simultaneously reduce the quality of the final product? With so many sources of information, can we trust all we see or read on the Internet?
According to Steve, as long as media houses and journalists remain responsible and consumers are able to discern the factual from the fictitious, we are headed for a truly positive media revolution.
