By SteveK 

> Mediaweek’s Mike Shields reports that iReport.com will open this week, as an off-shoot of CNN’s focus on citizen journalists. Last month CNN bought the site’s domain name for $750,000.

> Starting this afternoon, the World News webcast will feature a week-long series of reports about environmental issues. The Charlie Gibson-anchored daily webcast airs weekday at 3pmET on ABCNews.com.

> FNC’s Phil Keating began his “Across America Tour” this morning from Washington, D.C. Keating will travel, via the Election Link truck, 3,500 miles across America over the next 15 days, interviewing everyday Americans about the 2008 election.
