The professional work component details the author's experiences working at U.S. News & World Report, doing computer-assisted reporting. Includes examples of work. In the research component entitled, "Money is knowledge at the National Technical Information Service," the author discusses the loophole in the Freedom of Information Act that allows the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) to charge huge rates for its information. The author concludes that "while the NTIS was established to archive and disseminate information to scientists and engineers, its duties have expanded as technology progressed. Journalists' facility with computers has proceeded just a step behind NTIS' growing collection of government information stored on magnetic tapes and diskettes. In addition, other agencies have begun ... selling information by brokering files through the Service. Together, these factors mean NTIS' ... audience is broadening. ... As more people from non-profit scientific and educational institutions and members of the media join the NTIS' audience, NTIS' rate structure strays further from the ideal delineated by the Freedom of Information Act. The result is that a service designed to make information available to more people has changed into one that makes information more expensive, and thus, for some, more difficult to obtain." (p. 24).
