Christine Boese, a writer for CNN Headline News and a blogging pioneer, will present a free, public lecture at 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 10, in the University Center Theater at The University of Montana.
Her lecture is titled "Big Media and Little Bloggers: How Corporate Media Responded to War-Blogging Journalists." Blogging, for those unfamiliar with the term, is a series of Web postings that can range from hard-hitting news articles to personal diaries, commentary and photography.
Boese is the fifth Distinguished Pollner Professor at UM’s journalism school. A Wisconsin native, she has worked as a newspaper reporter and has taught at universities in Wisconsin, Arkansas, Georgia, New York and South Carolina.
She also keeps more than two dozen blogs -- public and private -- including prominent "warblogs" from the Iraq War for two international freelance journalists who covered the war from Kurdistan in 2003.
This semester Boese is teaching a blogging seminar and working with the student staff of the Kaimin, UM’s campus newspaper.
