Punching Down - Episode 4

On this week’s podcast, Eve has some gossip about some personnel changes at a well-funded Bay Area news organization.

Then, we critique the redesigns of the Web and mobile versions of Twitter.

We also talk j-school (or J-school, if you prefer), which leads us to ask our journalism student listeners whether or not it’s OK to write about someone without making an effort to contact them first. For example, Eve points to a recent blog post on Jezebel that questioned whether Xeni Jardin could have been diagnosed with breast cancer the same day as her mammogram.

Dear listeners, we need voicemails! Please record your questions, comments, and whatever else you feel like by calling 415-8PUNCH0 (415-878-6240).
