Redmont’s Prediction For US Elections
Monday, November 5th, 2012 | Articles | Comments Off on Redmont’s Prediction For US Elections
In a brief interview with Filippo Sensi, deputy editor of the newspaper Europa, Dennis Redmont talks about the upcoming US presidential election and its possible outcome.
Since the elections will be very tight, republicans and democrats have recruited thousands of lawyers to monitor and eventually question some small-margin results (the republicans even 8 thousand). The most important battles are the referendums regarding the states who would legalize marijuana (Colorado and Washington), gay marriage (Maryland) and the “proposition 37” in California (companies have spent over 40 million dollars) in favor or against OMG. But at the end Obama will win, as he rightly managed the Sandy tragedy and has recovered from a horrible performance in the first debate which will remain a classic of political rhetoric.

Journalism 2.0? “A job for many, not for everyone”
Sunday, October 23rd, 2011 | Articles | Comments Off on Journalism 2.0? “A job for many, not for everyone”
Dennis Redmont takes a picture of the state of the profession of journalist in the web 2.0 era in his contribution on the magazine “Aspenia Web 2.0: Potere e Libertà” – on sale since October 24th 2011. How does the role of journalists change within the new web platforms? How do they adapt their activities to new technologies? And how does the same idea of ‘editorial board’ evolve?
Journalism is no longer an economically rewarding job, at least for what the large-scale journalism of old editorial boards is concerned. All those brand-new types of journalism – such as on-demand and do-it-yourself journalism, or the use of anonymous sources and false identities – raise up one big question: is ‘real’ journalism dead? Are thus journalists a vanishing species? Absolutely not. Actually, a good journalist’s key is a constant application of standard rules. Essential and timeless rules. True journalists will continue to be clearly heard among the mass of voices coming from the web.
