The Journerdist (whom I met on Thursday at the ONA conference) does a terrific job offering some hard data about online news jobs. Read the two posts here: Part 1 and Part 2. The real point I’d make about the data is that there is a growing job market for journalists with multimedia skills (the job board at ONA had a lot of pieces of paper on it). #

A follow-up survey might ask how many regular reporters are now being asked to collect multimedia components (audio, photos, video) in addition to their “reporting duties.” #
