Review: The OhMyNews model is expanding to Japan. It's an interesting model they have with a ratio of full-time to contributing reporters. The phenomenon of blogging can reduce full-time staff. The question is can it reduce it to zero? Theoretically, yes. In practice? Don't know. But OhMyNews in Korea, which has few people who blog, has a ratio of 1:50. -don-
