On NPR this morning, they had a story about the blog “Enron: TrialWatch,” which is written by Houston Chronicle staff covering the trial. It seems interesting because the point that the reporter made in the NPR interview is that the blog creates a space to cover aspects of the trial that either doesn’t fit or isn’t appropriate for the newspaper pieces.
Funny; just a year or so ago, newspaper (aka “dinosaur blogs”) were running pieces about how blogging just couldn’t possibly be credible sources. Now it is a bit of if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.
