The objective
: Jay Rosen and other bloggers get some major quote love from Mike France in a Business Week column about whether there is a market for nonpartisan news. France hopes there is.
I talk a lot about the need for a new transparency of perspective and process in the news business — because I believe it will, in the long run, restore credibility. That doesn’t mean that every reporter on every story becomes a partisan. Not every story is red-v-blue; not every story is so simple. But where there is a perspective that’s relevant, isn’t it better to disclose it than not to?
