24/7 Wall St. names top business news bloggers

Douglas MacIntyre of 24/7 Wall St. has compiled his top 10 business and financial news bloggers, and while the list includes some well-known names such as Eric Savitz of Barron’s and Herb Greenberg of Marketwatch, he’s also got some names on his list that may not ring a bell with business journalism junkies.

The list includes:

Paul R. La Monica, Media Biz, CNNMoney. Old media. New media. This blog covers all of the major companies in these industries. Google. Comcast. The works. He has a finger on trends that most writers miss. As well-researched as any writing on these topics. Has the eye of securities analyst’s.

Bruce Einhorn, Eye On Asia, BusinessWeek. It’s hard to get good picture of what is going on in the business community and the big companies in Asia. Part of it is the vastness of the region, and part is the number of cultures. This kind of reporting and analysis is simply not available anywhere else.

Mathew Ingram, Technology Blog. Globe and Mail. This blogger switch hits. He has his own blog and writes for this Canadian newspaper. Unusually keen insights covering the world of online media and technology. Not from America,Â but we can waive that.
