Society of Professional Journalists  Presents:

 

'Blogapalooza: Ethical Issues Online'

 

 

San Diego SPJ Pro Chapter members will celebrate Ethics Week with their favorite bloggers at "Blogapalooza: Ethical Issues Online." 

 

Scott Lewis, the editor of voiceofsandiego.org and a San Diego SPJ board member, will moderate what should be a boisterous discussion of the blogosphere.

 

Five local bloggers will talk about how they handle news on blogs, whether they have a freer rein than they do when writing for traditional media, whether the rules are different for bloggers than for other journalists, and much more. 

 

The blogapaloozers will include:

 

·      Chris Reed, San Diego Union-Tribune editorial writer and author of " America 's Finest Blog" (weblog.signonsandiego.com/weblogs/afb/)

·      Dave Rolland, editor of San Diego City Beat (www.sdcitybeat.com)

·      Pat Flannery, author of Blog of San Diego (www.blogofsandiego.com)

·      Bradley Fikes, North County Times staff writer and author of the Festering Swamp blog (www.festeringswamp.com)

·      Joe Gandelman, editor in chief of The Moderate Voice (www.themoderatevoice.com)
