Blogs are another format for conveying news and information.
Blogs are to supplement stories, not replace them.
Two assumptions
Three blog forms
• Aggregator
• Insider
• Commentator
AGGREGATOR: Blogs that emphasize aggregation are to be prime sources of news and information on a given topic, trend or blend of traditional beats. The blog will make connections and stitch together common threads within the topic. The blogger could link users to other websites, as well as multimedia story forms such as videos, slideshows and FLASH packages and
social media channels such as Twitter and Facebook.

INSIDER: Insider blogs emphasize stories or events behind the scenes and around the news. Such blogs incorporate short items such as observations, anecdotes, quotes, photos, links to related content. Much of the material in this kind of blog comes off news already published in another form (i.e. stories; alternative story forms; columns; photos; multimedia.) Posts may look ahead and anticipate events. These could be a group effort or single author with expertise in the topic.

COMMENTATOR: Commentator blogs are an extension of existing columnists, reviewers and editorial writers’ work, and are meant to convey the views and personalities of the authors. Blog posts can be quick responses to breaking news, follows to published columns, or other material that augments the authors’ columns or reviews.
