The LATimes certainly isn't going to tell us about what's going on in Pomona.<br /><br />Out here we don't even get a Patch as I guess we're not the proper demographic (too large? too poor? too urban?).John Cliffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02875675135859666829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514745.post-81916171114065084342011-05-17T15:19:56.826-07:002011-05-17T15:19:56.826-07:00No they don't...I doubt if the few readers lef...No they don't...I doubt if the few readers left in langland read the newspaper even if it happens to be delivered.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514745.post-50404041265437738752011-05-17T11:19:21.171-07:002011-05-17T11:19:21.171-07:00I absolutely agree, 7:20.

They apparently don't realize that, even if they can't pay their employees, something like this is a way to get them some reward and recognition, and can do tremendous things for individual and staff morale. But, eh, it's too much trouble. Idiots.<br /><br />Also, for a journalism group, what a horribly edited list of nominees. Other than the standard punctuation and capitalization errors, there are at least two instances where the same person was nominated twice in the same category -- and their name was spelled two different ways. I'll say the same thing I say about the LANG papers -- doesn't anyone read this stuff before they publish it?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514745.post-46101946085821645062011-05-16T19:20:29.709-07:002011-05-16T19:20:29.709-07:00Gary, you're right. The list of finalists seem...Gary, you're right. The list of finalists seems forced and sad. I'm a copy editor within LANG, and there are some real gems within the ranks, who know how to report and write great news features. These are reporters who, despite wage cuts, furloughs, and other acts of stupidity within their newsrooms, still manage to produce great work that reflect care for their community and the issues. Seems to me either editors from the PT, DN, or SGVT either didn't enter stories, or those that judged them simply picked ones that appeared important, because they were long and dull.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
