Blogging the CBC lockout

CBC lockout from a blogged perspective, there are a growing number to choose from. Here follows a list assembled in part by Canadian Journalist posting:

• I Love Radio.org’s coverage of the CBC labour dispute: assembled by Tod Maffin, CBC contractor and “Nerd”.
• The Tea Makers: a manager inside the CBC, sympathetic to the locked-out employees.
• Mind the Gap: Hadeel is an Ottawa CBCer on the picketline.
• Gertie’s CBC lockout: a Toronto CBCer on the picketline.
• The Matt Watts Blog: a Torontonian under contract with the CBC.
• Pakdale Pictures: JT is Toronto producer locked-out by the CBC.
• Dan Misener likes the radio: a Windsor CBCer on the picketline.
• Jennifer Quesnel’s blog: a Regina radio report with CBC on the picketline.
• Yvan Eht Nioj’s @Lageheads: a Vancouver CBCer on the picketline.
• yougeek: former CBCer support the locked-out employees.
• CBC Watch: a right-wing blog that critiques the CBC.
• CBCunplugged: a meta-site for CBC pirate podcasts.

I’ll probably update this as it goes along, but in the meantime Tod Maffin is now tracking this in his blog, but you may want to import the OPML file into your RSS reader — it contains pointers to feeds for the above blogs and will be updated more frequently.
