Internet, a place for citizen journalism ?

The newspaper prints part of an essay published in the online magazine 'edge' in which computer scientist Jaron 'Lanier criticises people's blind faith in Wikipedia and the "resurgence of the idea that the collective is all-wise, that it is desirable to have influence concentrated in a bottleneck that can channel the collective with the most verity and force. This is different from representative democracy, or meritocracy... History has shown us again and again that a hive mind is a cruel idiot when it runs on autopilot. Nasty hive mind outbursts have been flavoured Maoist, Fascist, and religious, and these are only a small sampling. I don't see why there couldn't be future social disasters that appear suddenly under the cover of technological utopia. If wikis are to gain any more influence they ought to be improved by mechanisms like the ones that have worked tolerably well in the pre-Internet world. The best guiding principle is to always cherish individuals first."
