He sends a wake-up call tonewsmakers-politicians, business executives, celebrities-and the marketers and PR flacks who promote them. He explains how to successfully play by the rules of this new era and shift from "control" to "engagement." And he makes a strong case to his fell journalists that, in the face of a plethora of Internet-fueled news vehicles, they must change or become irrelevant.Journalism in the 21st century will be fundamentally different from the Big Media oligarchy that prevails today. We the Media casts light on the future of journalism, and invites us all to be part of it.Dan Gillmor is founder of Grassroots Media Inc., a project aimed at enabling grassroots journalism and expanding its reach.

Rezensionen
"Mit We The Media hat Dan Gillmore die Blaupause für eine neue Generation des Graswurzel-Journalismus geschrieben. In seinem Buch zeigt er auf, welche Möglichkeiten das Internet im Bereich des Personal Publishing - des persönlichen Publizieren eines Jeden - bietet. Seine optimistische Analyse beweist, wie mit Werkzeugen wie Weblogs, RSS, mobilen Telefonen und Handhelds sowie modernen Redaktionssystemen generell eine neue Generation von Meinungsmachern heranwächst. [...] Einerseits ist das Buch spannend mit zahlreichen Beispielen angehäuft, deren Entwicklung man nachträglich im Web nachspüren kann und andererseits schafft es der erfahrene amerikanische Journalist ein Medienphänomen auf den Punkt zu bringen, um seine Leser enthusiastisch in die Welt zurück zu schicken. We The Media ist eine präzise und generell positive Analyse der neuen Veröffentlichungskultur, die mit dem Internet in unserem Alltag Einzug genommen hat. Auch wenn Dan Gillmore stets begeistert von den neuen Formen des Publizierens berichtet, beleuchtet er auch die Schattenseiten und appeliert für den Kampf um Meinungsfreiheit. Auch wenn We The Media enthusiastisch geschrieben ist, verliert es nie den Boden unter den Füßen und wagt nicht nur Ausblicke in die Zukunft, sondern sensibilisiert uns für die neuen demokratischen Möglichkeiten der Berichterstattung. Denn auf mehr als 250 Seiten zeigt uns Dan Gillmore, wie der normale Bürger mit Hilfe des World Wide Web ein starkes Werkzeug für gelebte Diskussion, Demokratie und variantenreiche Berichterstattungen an die Hand bekommen hat." - phlow.net, Mai 2006…mehr
