DNC Bloggers Missed An Opportunity

Blogging's Role Is To Go Places The Mainstream Press Can't

by Charlene Li, Ted Schadler

with Chris Charron


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

The Democratic National Convention recently admitted 30 bloggers as credentialed press. While they provided amusing and insightful anecdotes to traditional media, these new-age reporters missed the chance to be the public's eyes and ears where the real action took place: in the more than 200 sideshow events. Blogging serves its best role when it produces stories that the mainstream press cannot cover.
