Mardi's a fantastic person to work for. Not too hard on the eyes either.

Gebus it seems like this job is listed every 6 months or so....

A giant. He was in SF for the 89 series and after the quake spent the next week filing reports from the scene. Some of the best reporting you'll ever read.

Those figures are bogus. People with some experience would make $40-$50k.

Most of the reassigned MN sportswriters are better suited to HS coverage anyway.

Synopsis: Bootlickers and bloat hold on; infantry thrown under bus. The incompetence that couldn't turn a profit this century stays in place. -30-

after a ND win over USC with Navy next on the slate: Irish rip Trojans, Seamen Coming

Post of the Year. Of many years. Admirable. Ethical. Compassionate. My hat is off to you, noble scribe.

Lame. FOI that coach's ass on everything you can. As a state employee you're entitled to see a lot. Ratchet up the pressure. This aggression will not stand, man.

If I had some ham, I could have some ham and eggs, if I had some eggs.

No place I'd been around before said the publication "supported" the local sports team. It's bush league.

The inbred homers here in northwest Arkansas wear Razorbacks gear during broadcasts. Even worse is one of the newspapers that routinely runs house ads saying "The Morning News supports the Razorbacks." However, that has not diminished their coverage. It's as awful as always.

TF, you are right. My characterization was off-base as the UA football beat guy especially is pretty solid. The "slouches" are the SE and ASE who while decent fellows are not the hardest workers you'll ever see. And of the the two revered columnists (not Neiswanger), one is a complete homer who...

Three *big* deals here should the JOA go into effect -- and it will: the new Northwest Arkansas Newspapers will have a five-member board, with WEHCO holding three of the seats. Advantage WEHCO. Second, Razorbacks coverage -- outside of Wal-Mart, the biggest beat in NWA -- will be taken by the...

War is hell. Those of you who approve of any form of censorship aren't journalists -- you're p*ss**s. The truth shall set you free.

Most of the people commenting here haven't been there so are really not aware of the scene on the ground. Kind of like those who think Houston Nutt got a raw deal. Do the research. Inky's link is a good start.

Actually, I have worked for the R-T and it was a decent gig. Pop.'s not 20k; that's the circ. Population's pushing 100,000. Midland is built on the oil industry, and it is very conservative. And flat as a table. The H.S. football beats are lots of fun, really. Good football at all levels and...

On the other hand, you're close enough to consider the leap to Roswell when that job opens up.

My experience with Leavell was always positive; that can't be said about his boss, Bob Yates. Yates was handpicked by Dave Smith and emulates Smith's cold manner but not his savvy for picking people. The News was built on its amazing coverage of HS football, but I can't see how they expect to do...
