Ramon Congratulations on your traffic. In the new Internet pbisulhing age, page views certainly are a testament to quality of work. That's why Perez Hilton draws penises on celebrities' faces and registers millions and millions a month The Herald's circulation is dropping like a stone for the same reason all newspapers' are. A combination of bloated organization with built-in, unnecessary costs and blogs basically stealing their work and aggregating it, making there few reasons to read the source paper. Of course, the blogs doing this claim they only cite the story; but in my experience blogs generally give away all the stats/brunt of the story, in their excerpts which makes the source unnecessary. I dont' claim to be. I've never claimed to be (though you keep insinuating that I have). No, I pointed out that you complain about what a poor job reporting the Herald does on a certain issue when you could easily attempt to do that reporting. But you won't. Or, I should say, you can't . Because it can't be done. Pomeroy and politicians won;t just answer any questions reporters have. And you know why they can increasingly ignore the press? Because thanks to blogs like SA, their messages get parroted anyway without any kind of critical analysis. That's what politicians used to need papers to do; now they have left/right-wing blogs and, to a degree, TV networks to d this for them. Hence, fewer reasons to even talk to a newspaper, which is only going to bring them grief. And I don;t read SA that regularly. But I am quite familiar with most of the media in ND.
