'Times' Tests Opinion Page On Tumblr
Journalism.co.uk, Wednesday, June 13, 2012 1:02 PM
The Times on Wednesday launched what it called "an experimental Tumblr page" outside its paywall offering Opinion content such as additional comment pieces from Times columnists. In an announcement on its Digital Experiments Tumblr page the Times said the new page will be "kind of a mix between a blog platform and a social network", also featuring photos from the news, links and video, "anything that we over at the Opinion desk find interesting". The title added that it hopes the new page will "give a flavour of what our columnists and leader writers do, how they think, and what influences their writing".
