B stands for bad blogging etiquette?

I have to wonder if the RSS feeds of local blogs (including this one) on Bthesite.com is how Lori Barrett found out about the story of UMBC Rock for Life suing the school? Otherwise, the story ran a week ago in The Retriever while I was on vacation, but after B started publishing. I’m wondering if the new bloggers at B have learned about giving credit to bloggers where you find stories yet or not.

    An oversight, not a snub — wrote it late at night. My apologies and I am adding a credit in one moment.

    They seem to need gentle reminders over at bthesite.com on how to give attribution. Kind of curious considering they’ve all assumingly had some sort of journalism training.

    Jeff and others,

    Guilty as charged, though as Lori points out above, it was an unintentional oversight.

    One of the most important goals of b is to highlight and celebrate the reporting and quality commentary that can be found in the local blogging community. We screwed up on this one. You can be sure it won’t happen again.
