From Marc Fisher, who's overseeing the project:
We’re hoping to demystify the work of a big, sometimes-anonymous institution and give readers a way to connect with the people who report and write the news.I wonder how much interest there is out there for this.
We’re really going to try to have a number of stories each week that are, from conception to finish, formulated on Story Lab. A reporter says, “Here’s what I’m thinking of; here’s the story as we see it. What do you think?” I fully expect that stories will evolve.

I'm with you, Gary. Who's asking for this so-called "participation" in the creative process?
Gary, That's part of what we were wondering ourselves when we highlighted the Post's story lab. I think the concept could work, but that they will likely need to create a new, online community that wants to engage in story process. I'm not sure the print subscribers will hop on board... But we'll see!
