MMJs Doing Hard News

Now that people have pretty much accepted the rather obvious fact that MMJs working with iPhones on their own can produce some stunning work, there is a new argument:

MJs are great for soft feature stories, but when it comes to doing hard news, you really need a camera person and a 'real' camera.

Let us put this next piece of nonsense to rest right now.

Here's a powerful investigative story done by Spectrum News 1 MMJ Olivia Levada - and the first story right out of MMJ bootcamp.

This is pure reporting, pure journalism.

And it was all done by one MMJ with an iPhone.

Nothing more.

It's a great story, and of course, only the very beginning both for Olivia, for Spectrum News 1 in Texas and for the entire Spectrum News network across the country.

Well done!

This morning, I went out early to buy my copy of the weekend FT — a great newspaper, by the way. I was a bit surprised to see that my regular newsstand, on 6th Avenue and 55th Street, had exactly 3 newspapers for sale — one copy of Baron’s and two copies of The New York Post. That was it. No FT, no NY Times, no Washington Post, no… nothing.
