Cosmo Macero is probably a better example of where a talented journalist can land. Tom Palmer was a guy who published press releases from the mayor’s office so not sure where you go with that skill set.

Whoops – I stand corrected, espn1260.com was registered five YEARS ago, I thought it was reported that it was registered five WEEKS ago. Oops…nevermind.

Ari, that was a lot more true 10 years ago…or even five years ago…than it is today. Paul LaCamera has made it a mission to beef up the newsroom there.

Granted, all radio news outlets do rely heavily on print outlets to find out what to report on for the day. But it’s not as bad as it was.

BTW, Dan, as for ESPN Radio, http://www.espn1260.com was recently registered. However, I think this is a false trail…a common occurrance in format changes. Radio Disney has nothing to do with ABC/ESPN anymore, so I don’t see them changing the format on 1260AM.

What you have to remember about WBUR is that most of their self-produced programming is derived from print. They don’t do much original hard-news reporting locally, and none at all in their national shows. They’re making money by ‘repurposing’ newspapers’ output.
Oops…forgot to say great post! Looking forward to your next one.
