Comments on: Washington Post Writers Lose Blog and Chat Swag? http://www.stetsports.com/2009/02/washington-post-writers-lose-blog-and-chat-swag/ The Best and Worst of Baltimore-Washington Area Sports Thu, 07 Jan 2010 01:33:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: JC http://www.stetsports.com/2009/02/washington-post-writers-lose-blog-and-chat-swag/comment-page-1/#comment-692 JC Mon, 09 Feb 2009 23:23:12 +0000 http://www.stetsports.com/?p=2073#comment-692 I've heard that only a few of the WaPo writers actually got blog and chat bonuses, so by and large, the other beat writers won't be affected in their post output. Still, for as many hits as they generate for the site, it would seem that they would institute some kind of bonus for the extra insight they provide.

One has to wonder with an average of around 100 responses to each of TEB's posts why WaPo would want to bite that hand. I think that WaPo needs to become more creative in building income streams instead of cutting costs. The money is out there. They've not figured out how to tap it.

Hopefully, it doesn't impact the Bog at all. I’m waiting to hear back from him, but I think it might cause a reduction in the features he does for the print version.

This really will suck. Hope this doesn’t have a major impact on Steinberg’s Sports Bog either. This really will suck.
