Newspaper Sites

I visited the BurlingtonFreePress.com and selected the video section. I thought it was a really good use of video. They were interesting video stories that probably would not have been interesting as written stories. I liked the organization of the video section as well its divided into News,Sports, and Entertainment.

I also visited AddisonIndependent.com, which is a smaller paper, but it does include video. Unfortunately it really doesn't have a large video selection. Any video would be under the multimedia tab, but this means all the medias are combined into 1 area and doesn't list what type of media the articles include whether it is a slideshow or a video or simply a picture. This is confusing and not effective because it makes it difficult to find videos, it also doesn't have interesting video stories.
