Abstract
This paper poses the question of whether experiments in journalism succeed in engaging reporters in public conversation, so that the reporters are educated about community concerns and they draw from pools of knowledge within society when writing stories. This question is explored in a case study of the 1998 and 1999 activities of Queensland's Public Journalism (PJ) Project.
