I've been eagerly devouring the rich diversity of Sunshine Week coverage. Here are a couple more examples of what news organizations are doing online to promote awareness of open government concerns:
- Herald-Tribune (SW Fla.): This paper's well-produced, attractive special section features online-only results of the statewide public records audit, by county and agency. Content Manager Lucas Grindley told e-Media Tidbits: "This amount of detail couldn't fit within the pages of the newspaper." The site also features a 10-question quiz on open records law in Fla. -- which I flunked, to my chagrin!
- Washington Post: "Sunshine Week and Your Right to Know" is a compilation of special investigative and analysis coverage from the Post concerning various open-government issues. Michael Dobbs and Al Kamen also have penned Sunshine Week editorials for the Post.
Which other online Sunshine Week efforts have caught your attention, from news organizations or elsewhere?
E-mail me, since I'm tracking them here on Tidbits and on
del.icio.us.
CORRECTION, March 16: Earlier I reported here that The Washington Post appeared to promote its Sunshine Week special section on its home page for one day. In fact, this promotion continues to run in the top-right rotating sidecar on its
national news home page.)
