An Innovative Opportunity for Journalism
An Open Letter to the Poynter Institute and Tampa Bay Times
Since taking a handful of journalism and media classes in college, I have had a respect for, and interest in journalism and the art of reporting the news. The in-depth written story that a journalist delivers is [...]
I am proud to say that I have completed my goal of running 200 miles in 2012. I ran 6.26 miles today bringing my total to 201.26 miles run outdoors.
I did not set out this year to run 200 miles. My initial goal was to a run a 5K which I did with the Gasparilla [...]
It’s not often we get to say simply, “I was right” but this morning I woke to some exciting news in an email blasted letter from Times Chairman and CEO Paul Tash. As I predicted in September here, the St Petersburg Times will in fact become the Tampa Bay Times.

Last week’s unfortunate news about another round of pay cuts at the St Pete Times prompted me to revisit a story I have been watching unfold for five years.
I can find nothing written and have only discussed this with a small number of people in the past five years it is time [...]

I remember looking into a Sam’s Club membership about five years ago and walking out of the store when they offered, as part of their ”Small Business Membership” to provide me a free website package.
Wait… that’s what I do… [...]
For the past three years I have not followed the happenings of the Casey Anthony case. For the past 30 days I used selective ignorance to avoid the trial.
However as the month of June closed, I could hardly avoid hearing about it from people around me, so I was made aware that we were obviously in the middle [...]
