My Australian colleague Julie Posetti at the University of Canberra has written a good piece in The Walkley Magazine about how journalists are, should and might make use of Twitter as a tool.
Why journalism’s all a-Twitter, Walkley Magazine Oct 2009
Julie’s piece highlights some of the professional and ethical issues that arise when Twitter enters the newsroom, but I agree with her that attempts to stop journalists from using Twitter is over-kill.
It raises a difficult issue though: when using social media, where is the line between a professional and a personal persona?
