∞ Yahoo to expand its blog network Monday
From CNN :
Yahoo, one Web behemoth, plans to add three new blogs to its growing family on Monday. Yahoo’s network expansion was born from a 7-month-old venture called The Upshot. For this blog covering breaking news and analysis, Yahoo recruited several seasoned journalists.
The new properties will live under The Upshot brand, but each take their own names — The Ticket for politics, The Lookout for national affairs, and The Cutline for media industry coverage.
At the helm of the project is Andrew Golis, a 27-year-old who came from Talking Points Memo, an online-only news network. There, Golis helped steer a rocket ship of a news startup at a time when there was little assurance that the Web needed or wanted another news source. Now, here he is again, helping to launch another news brand.
