BELTWAY BLOGROLL

All In The Blogosphere Family

The Family Research Council entered the blogosphere last week, just in time for the group's Justice Sunday III event in Philadelphia yesterday.

Charmaine Yoest is the managing editor of FRCblog and one of its only two active contributors. The only other contributor so far has been Tom McClusky, the group's director of government affairs.

Last month, the council hired Yoest -- who also blogs at her own site, Reasoned Audacity -- as the vice president of external relations. In addition to her work at Justice Sunday III, a project that focused on judicial nominations just before the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Judge Samuel Alito that began this morning, Yoest will co-host the first annual Blogs4Life on Jan. 23.

For council-sanctioned blog coverage of Justice Sunday III, visit La Shawn Barber, Captain's Quarters, Mind and Media, and Rightwingsparkle. As Ed Morrissey of Captain's Quarters disclosed last week, the Family Research Council paid his expenses for the trip to Philadelphia.

FRCblog is now part of the blogroll to the left. One other blogroll addition, under the media category: The Swamp, which is being recognized as the first-ever blog by a Washington newspaper bureau. The Chicago Tribune is behind The Swamp.
