CyberJournalist.net In The News
Internet Magazine, "'Site of the Week"
"Now that US and British forces have stormed into Iraq, more people than ever are watching the news online. And, whether for or against armed conflict, everyone's question is the same - how do I find out what is REALLY going on?
"This is where Cyberjournalist.net jumps into the spotlight. This site (created by the non-profit American Press Institute) is a fantastic gateway to some of the most innovative, journalism on the Web. It boasts the Internet's most comprehensive list of J-blogs (personal weblogs written by professional journalists).

Columbia Journalism Review, January/February, 2003, "Newspapers Online"
?Newspapers are no longer willing to just write the Web site off as a money-losing proposition,? says Jonathan Dube, a weekend producer for MSNBC who also runs Cyberjournalist.net. ?We already see much less free information.?
Poynter Online, "Inspiration for Convergence Journalism"
"If you're looking for ideas to break out of the day-to-day hustle of online-news shovelware, I suggest looking to an excellent resource for multimedia convergence journalism. You'll find links to excellent work on American Press Institute's CyberJournalist.net, including links to the Christian Science Monitor's 'Amtrak: All Aboard?', WashingtonPost.com's 'Rebuilding a Fortress, Rebuilding a Life,' and Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel.com's 'AIDS in the Caribbean.' -- Martha Stone
CyberJournalist.net in the News: 2002
Poynter Online, Nov. 20, 2002, "The Digital-Era Cartoonist"
"I adore the work of Mark Fiore, the San
Francisco-based political cartoonist who specializes in animated Flash cartoons.
He won the Online News Association's 2002 Online Journalism Award for Commentary
and was a finalist in the Creative Use of the Medium category.
Cyberjournalist.net's Jonathan Dube has
an
interview with Fiore. Excerpt: "The medium is so new that editors don't
immediately think of animated political cartoons. The cartoon syndicates
reinforce this by shoving huge collections of cartoons repurposed from the print
world down online editors throats." -- Steve Outing

Chicago Tribune: "Taking Google News out for a test drive"
"It basically gives people a quick glance of what news sites around the world are determining are the top stories," said Jonathan Dube, publisher of CyberJournalist.net, a site that explores the intersection of technology and media.... Many times, links refer to the same Reuters or Associated Press account posted by different sites. The sheer volume of links can make it harder to sort through and find a unique take, let alone the most interesting one. Dube said without the ability to sift out repeats, "right now, it's just kind of a novelty." ... Dube said the search engine is more powerful than its competitors and probably the most useful part of the site." -- Raoul Mowatt
Associated Press, "Media Industry News"
"The Media Center at the American Press Institute in Reston, Va., and CyberJournalist.net have formed a publishing alliance to jointly encourage better online and multi-platform convergence journalism. CyberJournalist.net is a Web site for journalists that focuses on the Internet, media convergence and new technologies."

"HEY, I'M OFFICIALLY A CYBERJOURNALIST! It says so right on CyberJournalist.Net, and I don't see how you could get more official than that." -- Glenn Reynolds

E-Media Tidbits: "Cyberjournalist.net, API Hook Up"
"Jonathan Dube's Cyberjournalist.net website, a resource for the online journalism world that covers the Internet, media convergence, and new technologies, has entered into an agreement with the American Press Institute to become a service of API's The Media Center. Cyberjournalist.net also will be incorporated into other information and training services produced by the Center, according to its director, Andrew Nachison. Dube will continue as editor and publisher of Cyberjournalist.net and becomes a senior editor for The Media Center (AND keeps his "day job" as technology editor for MSNBC.com), and Nachison becomes editor-at-large. (Dube also co-writes a regular column, Web Tips, for Poynter.org, publisher of this weblog. Where does he find the time for all this?)" - Steve Outing
CHOICE Magazine: Current Reviews for Academic Libraries, July 2002.
"Online journalism is a different world from traditional journalism, attracting readers looking for the quick fix, the equivalent of a headlines happy meal with the Internet as the toy.
