There is an interesting article in today's NYT about "The Daily Nightly," Brian William's blog. I honestly hadn't been checking his blog, but it sounds interesting. Here is a sample from the Times article:
"On June 23 at 4:09 p.m., for example, under the heading "Debating the Rundown," Mr. Williams wrote: "During our editorial meeting (which I will politely call a boisterous and vigorous exchange of views between colleagues) we debated the competing merits of our two lead story candidates: the changing administration position on the insurgency in Iraq, and today's Supreme Court decision on private property.
"Mr. Williams then identified particular colleagues by name, and the positions they staked out. The reader was left with a cliffhanger, the matter unresolved. Only at 6:23 p.m., seven minutes before he went on the air, did Mr. Williams take to his blog to write, 'And the lead is ... the Supreme Court decision.'"
It sounds interesting. I might start checking it out. I do have some issues with a main anchor running a blog, but by what the Times says he is careful not to cross the line. Full Article.
