The MoJo Concept

Facing deadline and multimedia demands, "backpack" or "mobile" journalists ("mojos"), who spend most if not all of their time outside the newsroom recording, shooting, and writing stories without ever sitting at a desk, are making cars and coffeeshops the new office.

E&P Senior Editor Joe Strupp writes in a special report:

Some even predict the "mojo" concept could lead to editors and some non-journalistic staffers working outside the office. With most editing, ad placement, layout, and design done on computers anyway, it's conceivable that the newsroom as it exists today could be eliminated, with folks working from home, their car, or even the local Starbucks.
