Fox News Channel has introduced a new logo and design for its citizen journalism initiative, uReport.
The new look improves upon the FoxNews.com design with sleek, shiny graphics, cleaner layout and better navigation.
Fox’s redo comes on the heels of CNN’s debut of iReport.com earlier this year. So far, MSNBC/NBC News hasn’t created a standalone site for its CJ offering FirstPerson. For a network that was founded on the premise of interactivity and the Web, MSNBC hasn’t really embraced citizen journalism to the extent of other outlets, particularly CNN.com (though, granted, MSNBC stopped its Internet-centric branding a while back).
By the way, the domain “firstperson.com” is owned by a Cayman Island-based company (CNN ponied up $750K for ireport.com).
