WaPo Copies WKRN, Makes The News

Did you see this?

Apparently the Washington Post is trying to unite bloggers in an umbrella ad scheme:

The Post (WPO: news) invited anybody who has "a blog about D.C." to a get together at headquarters Tuesday night. About 100 attended, the Post's Marc Fisher reported. "This was a chance for all sorts of local bloggers to hear from Post news executives about how the paper is not equipped to cover the micro-local events and issues that bloggers specialize in, and to explore ways in which the paper, its website and bloggers can collaborate, at least by referring readers to one another's work," he wrote.

Nice to see this Nashville-based business model making its way to other cities.
