Forbes has given all of its reporters blogs in an effort to turn them into "entrepreneurial journalists." Now some of them are using their blogs to critique the magazine itself, and a top early target has been conservative writer Dinesh D'Souza's article last week about President Obama.
True/Slant, the blogging network that sought to match experienced writers with advertisers, will cease publishing new stories at the end of the month.
When Lewis Dvorkin founded True/Slant, his expert blogging community, his goal was nothing less than inventing a new business model for journalism. Now, Dvorkin is attempting to install that nimble but high-quality model at Forbes Media.
Forbes Media, parent company of the 93-year-old business magazine, has acquired True/Slant, a blogging community for journalists founded last year by former AOL executive Lewis Dvorkin.
