Garfield: The Chaos Scenario

Bob Garfield, co-host of On the Media Show on National Public Radio and advertising critic for Ad Age, discusses the future of journalism. Garfield recently authored The Chaos Scenario, which explores the collapse of traditional media infrastructure. He believes that his generation is the last to have a large percentage of highly compensated journalists, and as a result society is losing a tremendous amount of experience, judgement, talent and wisdom. While he acknowledges the benefits the digital era has brought, he warns that future journalists will have a harder time remaining free of advertisers' influences.
