Networked journalism vs. Citizen journalism

Norwegian journalist's house under fire

Four shots were fired at Norwegian journalist Nina Johnsrud's house last night. An experienced crime correspondent with Dagsavisen, Johnsrud is convinced the incident is connected to one of the stories she has covered, though she did not receive any threats upfront. Nobody was hurt in the attack, but journalists and editors alike are worried about future implications. Nils Öy of the Norwegian Editors Association said this may be the gravest attack in the history of Norwegian press. "When you shoot at a journalist or a journalist's home, you do something more than this: you challenge an important civic institution," Per Edgar Kokkvold of the Norwegian Press Association told TV2. Selected coverage in Norwegian: Dagsavisen, Kampanje, Propaganda, Journalisten
