Bloggers keep scooping
In a world of break it first and break it often. It’s all about the scoops. And one guy with the pulse on the scoopwire is Lockhart Steele.
Ben Leventhal and Lockhart Steele are a pair of bloggers fighting a guerrilla war against the city’s publicists.
Nearly every day, the two provide restaurant information on their popular Web site, Eater.com., posting tidbits that publicists aren’t ready to release and traditional journalists haven’t managed to print.
Thanks to an army of hungry tipsters, Leventhal and Steele are irking restaurateurs, chefs and reporters alike with their timely scoops. They have broken stories about restaurant closings and the comings-and-goings of chefs, and their success has led to a new venture in Los Angeles, entitled Eater La.
