This in a piece of information on how to manage a News Blog like Voxant Newsroom Blog which consists of latest & variety of news/ events/ stuffs/ columns on world & US written by their top editors.

This News Blog brings a news site and a blog somewhat together as it places the latest news blogged by their editors as blog posts. They blog about politics, celebrity gossips, finance, health sci-tech etc mainly in context of USA although they place worldwide news like this Editorial on Recent Keyna Troubles.Since they cover the hypes n happenings/events regarding above said categories it’s being treated by world as a news sites with things blogged by editors or preferably a news blog. Staring a minute it looks good with the catchy theme that makes it look more like news sites like CNN.com. This gives us an idea how a blog can be created using nothing but daily news that we hear may be celebrity gossip or tech industry news.
Things that we find at the news blog and which we can add to a news blog are -
Selected Top News - International news with links to reports, youtube videos if any should be blogged daily at first. Also you should include the top news regarding the region you live in.
Gossips News Rumors- Post about any gossips,rumors etc you come through. Always you should ask for user opinion.
Videos - Either embed videos or provide links to them. Normally videos of any recent advertisements in TV like SuperBowl Ad Preview in that news blog, videos regarding news,celebrities etc should be posted. For this keep an eye on most videos posted in youtube.
Opinions Reviews & Announcements - These would also act as what we call editors choice in magazines 7 news papers. Give or write about your opinions on several issues supported by news reports n links. review new products. Announce the launch of new products like say Macbook Air recently unveiled by Apple in your news blog. Wired.Com which is also a news blog informed the world about the new Macbook Air, the thinnest laptop of the universe a day before it was officially launched/announced so got more hits than apple’s own site.
