Religion reporting is losing its prominence in American newspapers - The Boston Globe
September 14, 2009
MINNEAPOLIS - I spent the last few days here at the 60th annual convention of the Religion Newswriters Association, which is the national organization that represents the dwindling band of us who cover religion in the media. Attendance is off this year, in part because newsroom travel budgets are down, but also because the religion beat itself is suffering a serious reversal of fortune.
Now every two-bit blogger like me can be a religion reporter ...
... at least second hand.
