Transform your newsroom: the Telegraph model
Sunday, January 18, 2009
From the Nieman Reports published by Harvard comes a piece written by Edward Roussel, the digital editor at Telegraph Media Group in London who manages telegraph.co.uk and was a prime mover in the Telegraph’s integrated newsroom project. It’s a worthwhile read as these excerpts demonstrate: Newspapers still tend to define themselves by their paper rather [...]

Erik Ulken has posted a must-read top 10 list of lessons learned while setting up the data desk in the LA Times newsroom.The data desk's job is to take detailed information that's dreary to read in text or table form and make it useful by presenting it in compelling and interactive formats.

Lifecycle of a news 2.0 story
Monday, September 15, 2008
UK journalist Alison Gow does a nice job breaking down the lifecycle of a news story - how we used to do it in newspapers and how we can do it now using web2.0 tools and networks. Here's an excerpt: Step One. Reporter gets potential story (Web 1.0). Via: Phone call or meeting with contact; letter to the editor; email; comment on the newspaper's web forum; item in a publication or website; video on YouTube; punter walking in to the front office and asking to speak to a journalist.

Reportr.net caught up with my former colleague Chris Lloyd, assistant managing editor of Telegraph Media Group, at the Online Journalism Symposium in Austin, Texas.

Mistakes are built into the system
Sunday, March 30, 2008
I've had a few interesting conversations this week about quality control in newsrooms, in part sparked by the diagram I posted last week showing how many pairs of hands various kinds of news stories go through before being published. One thing that came up was how irritated people are by the number of typos regularly seen on news websites - including nzherald.co.nz and stuff.co.nz. As Nathan said in a recent comment, "I generally expect better of professionals."
