ABC Reshapes the Evening News for the Web
Brian Stelter takes a good look at the evolution of ABC’s evening news Webcast.
ABC is the only major broadcast network that is using the staff of its evening newscast to produce a separate and distinct daily program for a Web audience. The 15-minute Webcast often features Mr. Gibson in the anchor chair, but the similarities end there: the segments can run long, and they purposely look raw and personal, as if they were made for MTV rather than ABC..Over the course of 20 months, the Webcast has evolved from a basic distillation of the day’s news into an original program that incorporates video blogs, first-person essays and interviews. It covers many of the same stories as its television sibling, but often in a different way: in one example, the day after President Bush announced gradual troop cuts in Iraq, Mr. Gibson was shown debriefing the network’s chief White House correspondent, Martha Raddatz, in the Webcast for a full 3 minutes and 20 seconds — an eternity on a half-hour television newscast

Sacramento Bee: Tackling Life
Rick Rodriguez, executive editor, says:
Tackling Life" is a different kind of story that we are telling in a different way. Reporter Jocelyn Wiener tracked down 31 of 35 team members from the 1992 Raiders Junior Midgets football squad to find out how they had fared in life. She constructed the stories in a narrative style relying on extensive interviews with the players, their coaches, family and friends as well as police, professors and public records. She watched videos of games and a funeral, and spent time digging through cardboard boxes in the head coach's garage, filled with Raiders' rosters, statistics and handwritten notes.
