Can Programmers, Journalists Get Along in One Newsroom?
by Megan Taylor , October 19, 2009
Tagged: new york times , newsroom , newsroom culture , programmer-journalist , programming
One of the explanations for the emergence of the programmer/journalist is the move of news organizations from print (or radio or TV) to the web. While some newspapers have gone online-only, and many are still trying to move to a "web-first" mindset, there are still newsrooms that view the web as a secondary medium.
I remember when every step forward at my college paper, the Independent Florida Alligator, was a hair-pulling, tooth-and-nail fight. It wasn't that the other editors didn't think the website was important. The problem was one of culture. I had been web-minded from the beginning of my journalism education, while most students remained entrenched in the print structure.
So how do you merge the culture of the programming environment with the culture of the newsroom?
