“Bloomberg to Bloom in Washington” – BGov
Unique Bloomberg Government content includes Bloomberg’s own reporting and analysis. The product has already caused a stir in the Washington journalism world because of Bloomberg Government’s
hiring spree. The company plans to hire 100 people by the end of the year and to continue hiring into 2011. Some of those new hires are editors and journalists lured from Washington standards such as CQ.com. But many of the hires are not reporters, but economists, policy analysts, and other subject specialists. Bloomberg is forming industry-focused teams of reporters and analysts to provide not only daily news but also high-level analysis of data and developments presented in policy papers, in-depth articles, charts, and multimedia. Bloomberg Government will supplement its own coverage with news filtered and aggregated from other services.
