Citizen experts, and not citizen journalists, will be carrying Nokia handsets for Reuters, along with their regular journalists, in an attempt to expand the media giant's coverage in places where regular TV cameras might not be appropriate. Sure, the quality of a mobile phone's camera and microphone is really only good enough for web clips, but that's enough of an incentive for Reuters to begin handing out the phones to insiders. For example, says Ilicco Elia, a mobile product manager for the company, "being able to give a device to a famous footballer for example and say, you interview someone you find interesting would make for a very different piece." Yes indeed. Especially if it took place in the locker room. And the footballer was Cristiano Ronaldo. Yes, we can see why this is a wise investment.
