Arts Journalism Longa, Space Shorta
Why is arts journalism marginalized in so many publications? Literary critic Carlin Romano believes that "until arts journalists and their supporters examine the intellectual issues of their trade as seriously as investigative reporters probe their own dilemmas over protecting sources or going undercover - marching onto op-ed pages as controversies break, demanding the same attention as American media dopily devote to sports - they'll continue to be enablers of their own marginalization."Posted at June 04, 2002 03:05 PM | Arts
