I think for mid-to-late-career journalists, the change has been jarring. That doesn't mean that a lot of these people aren't great at grasping new, web-friendly lingo, but I think it would still be really hard shift and re-focus on completely new territory. Embracing something new usually comes with letting something else go ... so I think that's what he meant by stages of grief. Thanks for the comment on the Medill site. Take care. Katie Hey Erik,

I think maybe I should have mentioned the fact that Perl is a 30-year vet of the Post, and is someone who has had to adapt to a rapidly-changing newsroom. I think for mid-to-late-career journalists, the change has been jarring. That doesn’t mean that a lot of these people aren’t great at grasping new, web-friendly lingo, but I think it would still be really hard shift and re-focus on completely new territory. Embracing something new usually comes with letting something else go … so I think that’s what he meant by stages of grief.

Thanks for the comment on the Medill site. Take care.
Katie
