TechPolitics 2008 Unveiled

August 20, 2007 | 1:22 PM

Technology Daily has publicly lifted the curtain on a series of profiles and stories that appeared on the subscription-only Web site last week. The package focuses on what presidential candidates are saying about tech issues and how they are using technology in their campaigns. The special report's key ingredients include: the main page, profiles on Republicans and Democrats and several meaty stories.

Summer interns Sandra Gonzalez and Sarah Myers scoured the Congressional Record, candidate sites, YouTube and other sources to gather information on what has been said or done on the tech policy front. Meanwhile, staff writer Winter Casey examined candidates' views on trade.

We plan to update the package as warranted throughout the campaign, with feeds from political reporter Heather Greenfield and The Hotline's Shira Toeplitz, who writes the "On The Download" column for both publications.
