i've begun interviewing people in new york for it (this is my home base), and hope to schedule an on-camera interview with you in the upcoming weeks.

the documentary focuses on four core themes:

journalism education
journalism practice
journalism business models
journalism and democracy

more information about these themes and the general project scope can be found in this short treatment (pdf):

please let me know if you'd be interested in participating and if so, when might be a good time to get together.

i'd love to interview you about the topics above that you feel comfortable discussing, particularly your experience with startups such as true/slant and bushwickbk, and your ideas about contemporary punditry.

many thanks.

~michael
