NYTimes is “blogospheric”

Filed under: Blogging, We the Media

Ed Cone tells us that the New York Times is starting blogs and that a movie review blog by David Carr called the Carpetbagger is the first of a new online section called The Red Carpet.
A memo from Deputy Managing Editor Jonathan Landman (reposted with commentary on the LAObserved blog) begins “We’re blogospheric” then goes on to make the case for a newspaper blogging.
Ed, a tireless Greensboro promoter, notes “In January, NYT managing editor Jill Abramson looked to Greensboro for some insight on newspapers and blogs.”

Update: JR commenting on Ed’s post says the News and Record wasn’t contacted by Abramson.
