BBC Asks Readers for Help in Covering a Story

Poynter reports that BBC News yesterday asked its readers for help in covering a breaking news story when shots were heard in Damascus. Nobody knew exactly what was happening. When the BBC's own reporter couldn't add much background very fast, the organization published some basics online and asked its readers to add more details: "Are you in the Damascus area? Did you witness the blasts? Send us your comments using the form below." Reader comments and an article are posted on the site right now.
