New Baltimore News Site To Debut

Published on January 02, 2007 | Email this article

Three Baltimore media professionals plan to launch a new online news site that will mix professional and citizen journalism, MediaPost writes.

Sean Carton, chief strategy officer for online consultancy idfive, former WaPo and Baltimore Sun reporter Fern Shen, and Marc Steiner, host of a show from the city’s public radio station WYPR, will launch a site that will offer a “more comprehensive understanding of what’s going on in the city.”

The site is being called The Baltimore Bulldog, for now. It will combine text, audio, and video, in such a way that will offer “something that couldn’t possibly be done on paper,” according to Carton.

Steiner promises to create new ad models that will help sustain the site.
