Liveblog: WKRN Bloggers’ Conference

Posted by Steve Safran on September 9, 2006

Your less-than-humble correspondent is in Nashville today liveblogging a meetup put together by WKRN, the forward-thinking ABC affil. Mike Sechrist, the station GM, has invited area bloggers to come and chat. It’s the third such gathering he has put together. It’s an inspired idea. So many stations fear bloggers: “What if they write something bad about us?” Sechrist understands the community of news concept, and has invited people into the conversation. LR Mentor Terry Heaton is here, as is Michael Rosenblum. Check in for the liveblog.
