CitJ prep reporters

Is this an Advance-wide thing, or just at NOLA? Don't know that I'd feel too comfortable with halftime highlights filed by boosters. At least the Web site is separate from the paper, though.

Depending on what they mean by "halftime reports" I don't have a real problem with this. If your paper's Web site could provide live scoring to football games wouldn't you want that? How many times during the night do we get calls from locals asking if we know the score? If you have the ability to provide live scoring, plus who scored touchdowns, etc., why not?

Citizen Journalism is the newest oxymoron of our profession. It should be stopped immediately as a matter of principle.
The only thing you could trust from one of these callers is the score. And even that might be stretching it.
