As of this morning, there’s a noteworthy new
kid on the legal blogosphere
block: "The
Wall Street Journal Online, Esq."
Well, not quite—actually, they’re calling it simply their "Law
Page," but a "centerpiece" of their new coverage is their
new Law
Blog. Grab the feed.
Who’s behind this?:
"We’ve beefed up our legal team with two great journalists:
Ashby Jones, our legal editor, was a reporter at The Deal and American
Lawyer Media. A former litigator and clerk to a federal judge, Ashby
is a graduate of Haverford College and the University of Michigan Law
School. He’ll be writing The FLaw column."Peter Lattman will be writing our law blog. Peter joined the Online
Journal from Forbes Magazine. Before becoming a journalist, he was
a litigator at a law firm and worked on Wall Street. He is a graduate
of Harvard University and Fordham University Law School. The blog will
also include contributions from reporters at The Wall Street Journal
and Dow Jones Newswires."
A heartfelt "Welcome" to the blawgosphere is in order!
And you thought blogging was going to turn out to be a fad….
