Abstract
Although there has long been a divide in popular music between critical response and marketplace reception, never has that gulf been greater than it is now, extending well beyond musical taste to modes of consumption. As tidal waves of technology have transformed both journalism and popular music in profound and interrelated ways, journalism in general, and music journalists in particular, face enormous challenges. Radical change has created a disconnect that is as much generational as technological, a divide that music journalists must bridge in order to stay relevant. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
