BYOMD


Rob Curley speaking / Bryan Murley PhotoBryan Murley recorded a brief audio clip of New Media journalism's Billy Sunday at a tent revival in DC.

What? Well, it's really the Washington Post's Rob Curley at the CMA/ACP National College Media Convention. But there's not a more passionate evangelist for journalists to get their careers saved by adapting and adopting. And for those that don't listen, there's career fire and brimstone awaiting.

Give it a listen. The advice holds as true for aspiring journalists as veterans. Better to listen to him than me. After a talk I gave to a group of journalists, one blogged that I was "such a bore."

BYOMD = Bring Your Own Mountain Dew.
