Editor of Sports Illustrated, Steve Smith concludes, “Sports Illustrated is paving the way in terms of embracing online as a media platform. When we do an interview or a photo shoot for the magazine, we’re not only asking extra questions and writing extra content for the website, but we’re also shooting video of the interview or photo shoot. As a result there are many mentions in the magazine each month that link back to what extra content can be found on the website”.
