When I think of the term " citizen journalist", I can't help but imagine our class reenacting the Sun Devil Football pre-game video... haha " I.... am a CITIZEN JOURNALIST!" I have been looking for good examples of a citizen journalist blog, I was only able to find examples of the Oscars, which by the way were the absolute best they have ever been. It is interesting to read the point of view of a citizen. I think it adds to the experience and they are able to a different approach to covering a certain story- whether it be through details- or even language. Some languages will interpret things just because there meaning is skewed or "lost in translation"
I think it is possible for a young blogger to have an influential impact on their readers... why not. I think some good that a citizen journalist might bring to Journalism- is eliminate the "Fluff" of prestigious journalists, and express themselves with- perhaps less political pressure or bias... or maybe not haha.
