UK: Liverpool Daily Post invites readers into the editorial process with blogs and videos
Posted by Jean Yves Chainon on May 13, 2008 at 1:53 PM
Today, The Liverpool Daily Post is giving its online readers a unique chance to peek into the paper's editorial process.
The Post will be running a live blog throughout the whole day, until next morning's edition goes the presses.
Thanks to technology from Bambuser and Qik, the Post's journalists will stream video of themselves via their mobile phones, as they conduct interviews or work in the office.
The day's main editorial conference was also streamed online.
Readers of the live blog can submit ideas for stories and questions for journalists, about editorial decisions, design and more, both for the print and online editions.
"The success of the live blog during our local election coverage proved that our readers enjoy being a part of the newsgathering process, asking questions and sharing information," said Mark Thomas, Liverpool Daily Post editor.
"Now we want to take this a stage further and invite people to get involved in the production of their newspaper."
Congratulations to the Post for this innovative way of engaging the audience in the news process and behind the scenes.
Go take a look!
