Topik terakhir di forum Jurnalistik kulihat bertanggal 12 Juli 04, maka biar gak terlalu lama forum ini kosong, topik ini dibuat :)
Di reportage.org ada artikel menarik, tentang perbandingan dua surat kabar, Walfadjri newspaper di Senegal dengan Asahi Shimbun di Jepang. Penulis dan fotografer dr artikel ini adalah Karim Ben Khelifa.

Relative values
Karim Ben Khelifa looked at the work of two daily newspapers at opposite ends of the spectrum. The Asahi Shimbun in Japan, sells 12 million copies daily, and the Senegalese paper Walfadjri based in Dakar has a circulation of 12,000 copies. Both papers share the same goal, independent news coverage, but the resources available for them to achieve this goal are very different.
