—Livejournal comment about The Doctor and new media
"New media" for our purposes means computers, the Internet, and everything on them: blogs, podcasts, online video games, web originals, websites, and — since we are here — wikis. The Old Media organizations tend to have a bee in their bonnet about infringement, since a lot of New Media stand in a sort of gray area in regards to copyright.
See also Fan Works and Fanfic Recs, as fanfiction accounts for a large portion of new media content.
