Bloggers create World Compact edition
Welt Kompakt will be published on July 1, 2010 with an edition written entirely by bloggers. Among others, Jeff Jarvis, Robert Basic and Sachar Kriwoj write for the German daily newspaper.
The bloggers are not bound by content guidelines when creating the editorial content. They are free to choose the topics and how they are presented. Jan-Eric Peters, Editor-in-Chief of the Welt Group: "While we as professional journalists report, classify and evaluate every day in print and online, bloggers stand for subjective expression of opinion on the Internet. Our experiment is intended to show how content tailored to the Internet works as a newspaper."
