Nun werden auch die Mitarbeiter des «Miami Herald» zu multifunktionalen Journalisten, wie einem Memo des Chefredaktors zu entnehmen ist:
- «[…] we will make delivering that journalism on MiamiHerald.com and our other media platforms just as high a priority as delivering it in The Miami Herald. Let me repeat that for emphasis: Just as high.
Every job in the newsroom — EVERY JOB — is going to be redefined to include a web responsibility and, if appropriate, radio. For news gatherers, this means posting everything we can as soon as we can. It means using the web site to its fullest potential for text, audio and video. We’ll come to appreciate that MiamiHerald.com is not an appendage of the newsroom; it’s a fundamental product of the newsroom.
No more will some people be strictly newspaper staff and others will be strictly on-line or multi-media staff. If you produce news, you’ll be expected to produce it as effectively for the electronic reader or listener as you would for the newspaper reader. If you edit or design for the newspaper, you’ll learn to edit and design for the web site.»
