It's good to see that Kent Fischer, who covers the RISD for Dallas' Only Newspaper, feels comfortable enough with our blog efforts to use it to recruit readers for a new News project. He posted a comment on our Preston Hollow blog (it's the eighth one) about the paper's plans to launch an education blog.
Of course, this raises questions of why The News has to recruit readers for its projects by using our blog, but who are we to question the omniscience of the people in the Belo building? Though, if this works out for Kent and they get some readers, can we suggest an ad in the Advocate the next time The News needs to market one of its products?
The DMN needs to spend less time focusing on new blogs and more time on making their existing blogs function properly. Some of them are flat out unreadable in Firefox and others barely work or function properly. The DMN website, as a whole, is an embarrassment for such a large media company.
