Washington Post: With BlogTalkRadio, the Commentary Universe Expands

Columnist Howard Kurtz has written a piece about BlogTalkRadio in today’s Washington Post that proves we’ve come a long way from talking to “no one.”
In his column Media Notes, Kurtz explains how “With BlogTalkRadio, the Commentary Universe Expands.”
The article talks about the story behind our Citizen Broadcast Network, how some “unlikely stars have been born,” and BlogTalkRadio’s emergence as a tool for more empowering and interactive experiences online.
CEO Alan Levy says:

“It’s great that BlogTalkRadio is recognized by the number one media critic in the country, Howard Kurtz, as “a populist force in cyberspace.” This validates BlogTalkRadio as a powerful online medium that is a true Citizen Broadcast Network. As I said in the article, my Dad would be proud.

From the article: “It’s a great tool,” says James Boyce, who blogs at the Huffington Post and recently took a break from his online show to work for Bill Richardson’s presidential campaign. “There’s no barrier to entry. You set up your own show with simple-to-use technology.”

Starting from the ground up, an empty network with no hosts, to our current impressive lineup of content, Kurtz observes that in addition to bloggers, “some better-known people are also gravitating toward the outlet.”
