AP beefs up coverage… entertainment coverage

Don Day March 21st, 2008

The Associated Press is adding a total of 21 new people to cover entertainment for the organization, according to Nikki Finke. From an AP internal Q&A memo:

he entertainment vertical is not about gossip, unnamed sources and innuendo or about “peephole” journalism with AP photographers becoming paparazzi. It’s about recognizing an opportunity to use our journalistic talent and unmatched network of resources to produce high quality, multimedia coverage in an area of growing interest. AP’s high editorial standards and news values will continue to be observed, honored and practiced.

    here’s hoping they can ‘observe, honor and practice’ those ‘high editorial standards’ when confronted with the next shaven muff shot.
