Ryan Thornburg, an assistant professor at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill's School of Journalism and Mass Communication and former editor at washingtonpost.com, recently completed a survey of what journalists consider the most important skills set to have - and finds that tradition trumps.
Thornburg reports "news judgment and the ability to work under time pressure are the concepts that are most important to their jobs, while community management is far and away the least important of the 10 choices I gave them."
