Their first package is a comparison of mainstream media blogs.

The site includes an interview on the subject with USA Today Executive Editor Kinsey Wilson. Wilson says USA Today bloggers screen all comments they receive, and remove any profanity, personal attacks, or off-topic posts. “My goal is to, ideally, promote conversation that is both civil and on point,” Wilson explains. “That said, we’re not applying a heavy hand by any stretch.”
