The proposal for link journalism is not a new concept, though the phrase is good. This is something that bloggers have been doing for years and have been imploring the corporate media to adopt for years. On paper, you can provide references in the footnotes or endnotes, or you can mention “unnamed sources”, but in the age of the Web, it is sheer blindness not to use links – nobody will trust you if they cannot click and instantly verify your statements. Remember – no links, no reputation.
