notes on arts journalism

Barry Johnson over at the always excellent Oregon Arts Watch [full disclosure: I am a financial contributor to the site] has a thought-provoking piece on the ‘journalism’ of arts organizations that produce their own web or print content. I was not aware of this development, which on the one hand I applaud, but on the other hand, as an employee of an arts organization, realize that when you’re employed by the organization you sometimes write about, it can have a decided effect upon the subjects you take on. Please take a look.
