USAToday Relaunches Website, Doesn't Feature Video

Images_2 In the past day or so, USAToday.com relaunched its website with a new layout, new editorial features and new content. But the one piece of content they didn't feature is video. How can this be? Am I the only one who now can't find video anywhere on their website? With all that is going on with news organizations saying how much print is dead an how their online properties are crucial to their survival, I find it hard to believe that someone as large as USA Today is not using video to tell their stories. Can anyone show me where on their website you can get video? I have to believe that I am either missing something and don't see a link somewhere or they have completely buried the video somewhere else on the site.

Dan - Thanks for noticing our redesign. You are correct that when we launched Saturday there was no large video presence on our home front (www.usatoday.com). It was simply a matter of timing. We now have a prominent video spot there. Hope you'll give it another look. We expect to be making improvements to the way we treat video over the coming months.

Hi Jason, thanks, I see it now but unless I am missing something, I have to scroll two and a half pages down to get to it.
