ABC’s Ross on Foley scoop, web writing

Cory Bergman October 27th, 2006

Mark Glaser interviews ABC chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross about breaking the Mark Foley story online and the ripple effect in the newsroom. “It was a big moment that was driving editorially the news division,” Ross said. “It changes and improves the standards of people who are going to be hired by ABC News into this unit. If there ever was a time where TV people didn’t have to write, just had to know what good pictures were or how to get to a fire — that doesn’t work for us anymore. Everyone has to be able to sit down and write a story in an understandable, logical way.”
