It used to be so easy. Editors here would talk to our reporters about stories to cover. Reporters would write memos for longer articles, and the editors would assign the story. For the magazine, that is. It really was the only place that an article could go. We had 12 chances a year to fill up about 5060 pages with news, features, commentary, graphics, and art, and that would be it. Okay, when this thing called the Internet came around, we’d put up a couple of print stories on the site, along with a prominent "subscribe" button, just to have a presence out there in cyberspace.
But like a lot of things, it’s not quite so simple anymore. A few years ago, Corporate Counsel , like our sibling publications (or what the Brits so felicitously call "sister titles"), started up a daily news operation. With much of the same or slightly augmented staff, along with a dedicated editor, we put out daily articles, along with some expert advice by lawyers and technologists in the field. You can see their efforts every day at CorpCounsel.com.
