best Web treatment of high school sports

Discussion in 'Journalism topics only' started by bigblueman, Nov 28, 2007.

  1. Is anyone from Newhouse using the new Advance Internet web-based agate system for high school sports?

    Agate is another good point. I used to work for a Gannett paper, and while PrepsFactory had its faults, I liked being able to reverse publish the agate in the paper. It was smooth and something you could do real close to deadline.

    Anybody out there work with a good reverse publishing system?

    St. Louis P-D is very good:

    the Clarion-Ledger in Jackson, Miss., has an unbelievable database, plus some decent blogs and, I think, video. I haven't looked at it in a while.

    bigblueman, the publication that I work for in Canada has just restarted the website but will be undergoing changes during the holiday season. If you are interested in having a look, PM me and I will send you the link and/or if you want to ask what we are looking to do with ours.

    Not here, as Newhouse/Advance likes to group all of their papers from a particular/state region together under one Web site and not give the smaller papers autonomy over their portion of the site.

    Press: I will take a look at Utica. I didn't know they, too, were out from under the Gannett yoke.

    I guess I just had a good experience with Syracuse during the championship football run.

    I will say I had a good experience on the Chicago Tribune site the other day. Excellent basketball coverage.

    IMO, the Fort Myers News-Press is the best I've seen.

    Middletown, N.Y., is rather impressive. Granted, I didn't click every link in this thread, but that page has just about anything a high school sports reader could want. And it's all in one place.

    http://www.chicagosports.com/preps is the Chicago Tribune's website. They do a decent job. I usually go there when I want information around my area.
