Good lecture, professor. :)
Just a quick question regarding newspaper journalists who “blogs” on their own newspaper websites. It’s at least fairly common in the United Kingdom.
Like this for example from the Telegraph:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/
Daniel Hannan amongst others publish there.
How do they fit in? For instance Delingpole from the Telegraph has been excellent in reporting news about the global warming issue on his Telegraph blog that is ignored by other media.
Thoughts?
Anyhow, keep up the fantastic job you all do for the most past.
Cheers.
If it is associated with a major news site, it is probably fine for news as long as it isn’t put in a sidebar category (breaking, front page, etc). If it is really stupid or isn’t “new or noteworthy”, we may move it to bloggers or chat. Sometimes news of local interest only or topics from these sources on things like fashion or celebutards may be moved to chat.
