A few folks are slagging the roster of experts behind the American Press Institute's Newspaper Next effort, but there's a couple of energetic and interesting names in there. Skrenta and Wyman are definitely outsiders, while Curley, Yelvington, and Youngman have been up to interesting things from within a traditional newspaper framework.
Personally, I'm starting to find the revolutionary rhetoric a bit shrill. Newspapers and news orgs are too big to up and disappear/transform overnight. It'll be a slow morph ala the US auto industry, a.k.a. not world dominant but still a major factor in a new form.
