Backpack Journalism is going to be dominant in the future, but like any novel idea, it will take a while to be fully accepted. I think people are always going to be skeptical of anything that threatens the way they have known things for a long time. Other journalists may dislike/disapprove of convergence journalists for many different reasons. But I think the purpose of journalism should be kept as the top priority. Relaying, informing, and reporting the information to the people is every journalists job. There are a number of ways to accomplish this task, and each journalist must find the way that best suits him/her. Audiences will retrieve the news from whichever journalist/news organization relays the information in the way with which they are most comfortable receiving it.
People will continue to criticize, but I am confident in the rising of multimedia journalism and am sure I will be proud of the training and studying I completed for this profession.
