Everyone is watching everyone nowadays. I think i'll just relax and watch the media go by. There are so many things happening in the world of the media that I think we should pay attention to it.
The media watches us, and we must then watch the media. The media gives us stories. We must then also share stories about the media. Many people in the media who have left the profession are now blogging.
A Kadir Jasin, Ahirudin Attan, Nuraina a Samad, Syed Imran, Ruhanie Ahmad, Ahmad A Talib, Maria A Samad and Ibrahim Yahya used to grace the front pages of their newspapers. Now they have gone to cyberspace to write about whatever they want to write.
Will we see Azman Ujang and Khalid Mohd blogging in the near future? Word from the Press Club has it that Azman or AU may be put to pasture once his contract as the GM of Bernama expires soon. Same thing with Khalid at Utusan.
Both are expected to exit the world of journalism. Will they claim their own stake in cyberspace? Anyone heard anything? Both are loyal servants of journalism and will soon have to reinvent their lives once their term of service expires.
When this happens, Yong Soo Heong and Aziz Ishak are likely to take over at Bernama and Utusan respectively.
