"The Internet Has Created New Journalists" - by Erol Onderoglu
Le Monde Diplomatique (LMD) Editor-in-Chief Ignacio Ramonet who participated in the recent International Independent Media Forum held in Istanbul noted the increase of Internet users throughout Europe and a parallel increase of internet news, blogs as well as free newspapers, saying that these actually effected the newspapers which once appeared as if they could not be effected as well as effecting the stance of the readership.
IPS General Director Mario Lubetkin who also addressed the meeting said that solutions had to be found to very basic problems for the future of alternative media. Lubetkin stressed that the need for an alternative media had to be debated and explained in the widest of circles, from universities to artisans and civil society organizations.
