Blogs coming to ABC News

MediaWeek reports ABC News has joined CBS and NBC in publishing blogs.

Following the lead of both NBC News and CBS News, ABC News is launching a series of daily blogs on its flagship news site ABCNews.com which will allow users to provide feedback to ABC News journalists, who will in turn publish personalized accounts of their own news coverage.

The blog is similar in nature to the recently launched Public Eye blog on CBSNews.com and NBC News anchor Brian William’s blog on MSNBC.com. These new products are expected both to attract a younger audience to network news coverage while also answering critics who accuse mainstream news organizations of harboring biases or lacking transparency.

A year ago I reported all new blog additions like this one. Now there’s more major blog launches than I could ever keep up with.
