Jermey Wright, the author of Blog Marketing, recently had an interview with Business Line. The interview went into where business blogging is today, and where it will go into the future in regards if businesses should keep their blog writing in-house or outsource it.
Keeping the blog in-house will allow a more personal touch to their clients, however, just like with many other business activities it can easily be outsourced.
The reason you would want it to be kept in-house is to give your clients the authenticity of communicating with them. This is because the blog allows the personality of the company to shine through in their writing style and corporate culture.

Also, it provides a arms length from the business itself to the media, regulator
