NPR Intern Edition Powered by WordPress

NPR Intern Edition Spring 2008 is a new blog for the NPR radio/podcast show:

Intern Edition began in the summer of 1999 as a way for NPR interns to get hands-on experience with pitching, reporting, editing, producing, and directing their own show.  It grew out of NPR’s umbrella outreach and hands-on training program called “Next Generation Radio.”

The blog looks great using a modified Kubrick theme.  It also has integrated an audio player plugin for quick listening options ( as they’ve done in this post ), and a social bookmarking feature using the Share This plugin.

Thanks to Pressed Words for the heads-up.
