preditor
n.— «San Francisco’s KRON recently became the first major-market TV station in the US to supply much of its newsoom staff with laptops and digital video cameras, then train them to shoot, write, and produce stories on their own. KRON calls them VJs. Others in the biz sometimes refer to the combo role as “sojo” (solo journalist) or “one-man-band,” while a producer + editor mashup is a “preditor.”» —“KRON-TV: everyone in the newsroom is a one-man-band” by Xeni Jardin Boing Boing Dec. 19, 2005.
