New Media bah!

So the New Media Times is styling itself a peer to peer news site based upon the model of the Open Directory. Essentially this means that they are seeking people to assume responsibility for specific areas as editors, which doesn't make much sense to me. The strength of collaborative journalism lies in the elements of self-selection of the writers, and post-publication editorial review. Rusty is interested in launching something of this type.
