Closed minds?

Interesting quote this past weekend from Rob Curley, new media editor at the Las Vegas Sun, speaking to a college media convention in Phoenix:

"The most closed-minded journalists I've met are the ones who just graduated."

That could be due to their lack of confidence as rookies, or that their college might have been woefully behind in teaching new media, or youthful idealism that says, "Dammit, Bones, I'm a writer, not a Web jockey."

At any rate, we will try to do our part here to prove Rob wrong. But I'm afraid in many cases he's right.
