I’m in San Antonio for the Religion Newswriters Association conference, talking about “Working with Bloggers” with Religion and Ethics Newsweekly‘s Kim Lawton and Whispers in the Loggia‘s Rocco Palmo. The question is asked: What blogs do I regularly read? Here’s an importable OPML file to use in Google Reader or a similar program. I’ve excluded my World Music links, media news, and other unrelated sites. And do keep in mind that these aren’t necessarily the links I use to compile the CT Weblog – that’s done mostly by checking Google News, WorldNews.com, AllAfrica.com, and individual newspaper sites. And I should note that these aren’t the only blogs I check. But this will get you started.
One observation that you’ll probably make is that most of the religion news bloggers I read are professional journalists and members of the Religion Newswriters Association. The RNA has its own helpful blog aggregator.
