Will NYT Have Education Blog Up And Running By AERA?

Blogs for everyone!  Rumor on the street has it that the New York Times is finally going to start an education blog -- for now limited to local issues but linked up to larger issues at times, too.    I hear that they've tapped Jenny Medina, the newish metro education reporter, to do the job, though I haven't gotten any confirmation from her or her editors.  I do know that she's scheduled to appear later this month at an AERA conference event about education research and online journalists -- Rotherham and Colvin and I will be doing that one, too.  I hope she has a blog by then, though I'm sure her insights would be  useful regardess.  Previous:   Watch Out, New York City Schools -- Here Comes Medina
