Dan Gillmor points to the increasingly close (and mutually supportive) relationship between journalsists and the technology they cover. "By appearing on stage at the Apple event and by launching an iPad app that the Times wants to monetize in every possible way - an app from which Apple will likely make money as well - the Times is becoming more of a business partner with a company it covers incessantly." The more this is the case, the less we should be trusting what television and newspapers (and, for that matter, tech bloggers) tel us about technology, and to look for less authorized (and more reliable) sources. If they can be found.
