"The Post's new online vertical, Storyline, will cover policy topics through articles, videos and charts -- or "chapters" -- that follow a particular storyline....
avoid "hypothetical policy debates" ... We are going to tell stories with people, with characters, with human drama, in a way that other policy sites don't do very often...
depart from traditional newspaper narrative writing through extensive use of data and by publishing a cluster of stories around topics it will continue to follow for days or weeks at a time. ...
each day's storyline is like a small meal -- an entree and a whole mess of side dishes ... include visual data journalism, videos, reader response pieces, columns, short-form narratives, as-told-to interviews, oddball versions of oral histories and stuff that's just plain fun."
