What’s the difference?
An article is a self-contained narrative which should be researched and corroborated before publication. A live blog is less detailed and formal, is more immediate, and has a higher error rate as speed is the aim.
Why is a news organization publishing things that look like news articles but which have none of the elements of rigour that is expected of news organizations? Seems like something we should firmly reject.
