I already did a post on Mark Briggs’ chapter three of Journalism Next, but I am going to do a quick list of things that are important in this chapter.
In a blog, it is so important to:
- Gain viewers and a large audience.
- Keep your blog organized and easy to use so people can navigate throughout with no problems.
- Be credible. Make sure to establish credibility and keep it. A journalist is only as good as his sources; don’t jeopardize your credibility by using anonymous sources or ones you can’t trust.
- Establish your blog with a “beat” or certain subject you focus on.
- Use links to cite sources.
By doing these simple things, you are already working towards being a better journalist.
