[Seattle-editorial] current feature and categorizing stories

[Sheri Herndon]

i never suggested a rule.
and i'm certainly not against commentary....?
i was suggesting that we make a distinction for our readers.
i just think it's good to delineate when we've got commentary or news.  it's something that we've talked about in the imc since the beginning.  having categories.  with the slashdot model that philly uses, you could do that and i think that sf-active has that ability as well.  that's for the newswire.
i think for the features center column, having a way of identifying different types of stories might be helpful to our readers.
