BLOGGERS MEDIA MONITORING NETWORK
Powerful stuff
Following on from my post yesterday, Tom Watson MP writes: "Media monitoring today is on another level. All parties have a crack squad who monitor TV, radio and newspapers around the clock. You can get a review of the daily papers sent to your inbox before you wake up in the morning. In my day, you'd be lucky to get them before lunch. Now, as James Moore reports, political bloggers might get in on the act during the run up to the presidential election. The idea is that teams of bloggers attach themselves to a particular journalist. Between them they will analyse and deconstruct each story for bias, inaccuracy and nuance. Powerful stuff if you ask me."
