>> welcome to the 2011 spj town hall. i'm here with my co-host to welcome you to what promises to be a fascinating discussion about the changes taking place in journalism today. tonight's program is presented by the society of professional journalists in collaboration with the san francisco public library and san francisco bay area journalists. after several years of difficulty, we are seeing a lot of activity, particularly involving new media organizations. we have seen patch.com open hundreds of bureaus across the country. yahoo! is expanding its staff across the country. aol bought the huffington opposed. in the middle east, we saw how citizen journalists are reporting on the uprisings, and in papers like the "san francisco chronicle" are finding ways to collaborate with groups like spj's journalist of the year in northern california. his last three of this year's winners were new or nonprofit media, a ratio that would have been unthinkable just a decade ago when newspapers and large tv stations dominated the news media. to be sure, most

very different approach from the western developed nations now earlier i spoke to mark weisbrot he's the co-director of the center for economic and policy research and i asked him what impact if any this will have on the military intervention that is going on in libya right now. well i think you has a it has it impaired because it puts pressure on europe in the united states to they don't we're going to rooting for a negotiated solution and they weren't from the beginning and so the more of it you have a big part of the world and you have turkey you're also playing a mediating role this is something that ever had to deal with before. sue i think it will increase the possibility of a negotiated solution which is obviously what it's necessary and what do you think it means going for a longer term because brics obviously have a much different idea of what intervention should be there more pushing for dialogue and for non intervention so moving forward what do you think this means as far as global cooperation i think it's a very it's a hugely positive development i mean you it would brazil arra
