The 40 Best Protest Signs Of 2011

#WhileWeWatch has been a once in a lifetime filming experience. # OccupyWallSt came out of nowhere with new ideas and created a media revolution. Through ingenuity, guts and resourcefulness #OWS media made main stream media and the world look up and listen. The #OWS created citizens media. With little or no media training, press passes, press releases or money they pumped out their story. With cheap digital cameras, computers. texts, tweets, Facebook. live streams and a newspaper the world knew what happened at Zuccotti park and the streets of New York City..

Well, Define Journalist…

I think Andrew Katz (aka: the great twitter journalist of Occupy Wall Street) provides an excellent definition of what it means to be a journalist vs. a reporter.

Which brings me back to my thought “everyone’s a reporter, but not everyone’s a journalist.”

As you can see above, there’s a clear distinction to be made between reporter and journalist. Well put Andrew.
