This morning I received an email from my friend Mark Horner of Beyond90seconds.com about my blog being featured on tvspy.com in the ShopTalk/iBlog section. This is a surprise! Thanks to KOB-TV's assignment desk guy Mike Anderson for suggesting my site.
The write up talks about other television journalists across the country that have blogs too.
I've found blogging to be a great venue for us reporters to explain how things work behind the scenes and why we do what we do.
Often people have their own ideas of what it's like to be a reporter, most of it based on stereotypes and what they see in the movies (the reporter who is a vicious "vulture" waiting to exploit victims of crime and tragedy without emotion).
Blogging also gives us a chance to write as much as we want without the limitations of a scripted report. Soon, I hope to start adding much more to this site, including scanned copies of documents that may relate to a report I aired.
