I think this is a good idea. "Maybe there's scope for a TechCrunch Academic, that can cover neat stuff going on in academic research labs and help out with academics' often neglected public engagement and knowledge transfer activities." But who would do it? There's lots of money available for research projects, and nothing for real communication of results (I personally consider this newsletter to be among the best sources out there, but it is basically unfunded - a proper job would take a lot more time and money than anyone is willing to give (without trying to 'own' the content and massage the message).
