}}ChicagoNow[2] is a blogging site managed by Tribune Publishing, owner of the print Chicago Tribune newspaper. It features a network of blogs of international, national, and local interest on a variety of topics ranging from crime to public schools to politics and diplomacy.[3]

Notable ChicagoNow contributors include the staff of the Chicago Reporter,[4] and Shimer College president Susan Henking.[5]

History

ChicagoNow was launched in August 2009.[6][7] Its launch coincided with the Tribune company's bankruptcy.[8] As a newspaper-run blogging community, with the initial tagline "a blog by and for locals", it represented what one observer called "a new value proposition for newspapers".[8]

ChicagoNow utilized Movable Type as its blogging platform when it first launched but switched to WordPress in 2011.[9]

The website of the Tribune daily RedEye, which later moved to its own domain, was initially hosted on ChicagoNow.[10]

Reception

In April 2010, the World Editors Forum described ChicagoNow as a "hyperlocal blog network" that has "a personal quality that many larger newspapers lack."[11]

In September 2010, Time Out Chicago criticized ChicagoNow for hosting an unidentified police officer in what they called "a hate-filled, racist rant by blogger Joe the Cop, entitled The ghetto shooting template, for three days and counting now."[12] ChicagoNow removed the posts in question, stating that while they don't edit posts, they reserve the right to remove them.[13]
