For those who attended the NINA reporting workshop today with Dirk Johnson, what ideas will stick with you? For me, I think it's the idea that the stuff we as newspapers pay the most attention to is not always what readers care about most. It should be more about finding those stories that appeal to all of us on a basic level - stories of love, hope, loss, shame, fear, triumph.
Dirk said, "The survival of journalism depends on the strength of storytelling."
Do you think it's realistic to say we can accomplish that, as already-overworked reporters and editors? How?
