The Wall Street Journal began a daily webcast for its editorial page on Wednesday.
“Opinion Journal Live” is hosted by James Freeman, assistant editor of The Journal’s editorial page, and editorial board member Jason Riley. The program features interviews with newsmakers and op-ed contributors, as well as commentary on the news of the day from the editorial writers and columnists, including deputy editorial page editor Daniel Henninger, Americas columnist Mary Anastasia O’Grady, economics writer Stephen Moore, and Potomac Watch columnist Kimberley Strassel from Washington, D.C.
The program will also draw upon the Journal’s global reach by featuring interviews with editorial page writers stationed in Hong Kong and London. An occasional Political Diary segment will focus on the most interesting races in the 2010 congressional and gubernatorial elections.
“Our readers come to the Journal opinion pages for news and commentary shaped by our long-time principles of free people and free markets,” said Paul Gigot, editor of The Journal editorial page, in a statement. “With ‘Opinion Journal Live’ we will enhance our daily Web offerings with commentary and interviews on breaking events that readers can’t see anywhere else.”
