With the interview with Kerri Ritchie coming up in week 11, I just thought I’d post up some of the questions that my group thought of to ask her.

1. How long have you been working for the ABC?
2. What initially drew you to public broadcasting?
3. What is a quality/value/affordance that ABC/public broadcasting has, that new media (social media etc) does not?
4. What is the biggest way you feel the digital revolution has changed or affected public broadcasting?
5. Do you think the new media could ever replaced public broadcasting?
6. As a reporter, where does this shift towards online and user-generated content leave you?
7. Do you think the changes new media imposes line-up with the values associated with the ABC and public broadcasting?
8. Do you think new media can promote the values held by the ABC and public broadcasting in general?

Cheers to Hannah and Yolanda for brainstorming these up!
