How Much Should A Newspaper Pay Its Bloggers?
Check out this article about The Washington Post and tell me what you think.

Should newspapers pay their employees who blog anything extra?  How significant of an activity is internal company blogging?

I think that if a newspaper employee has to work measurably harder in order to help run an internal corporate blog or to put blog posts online, then the company ought to seriously consider compensating that employee accordingly.  Blogging is not as easy as it may seem - blogging well, that is.

Yes, blogging is not easy. Many people like to think it as writing diary. Professional blogging is really hard and it needs a lot of time and effort and most of all a lot of interactions with the readers. So, bloggers should be paid extra by newspapers.

We have one in favor. Anyone against?

Thanks for your comment, Razib. I like your blog on Asian business.
