A little guy beats the Democrat and Chronicle?

GateHouse Media's Messenger-Post is the little guy -- a newspaper that The Fighting 29th blog says is moving more aggressively into online video than the bigger Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

"Their response to new technology is to embrace it and use it to make their stories better,'' the blog says. "The D&C's response is to wall it off in an inaccessible ghetto and forget about it."

  1. The Fighting 29th blog is wrong... Unless they value quantity more than quality.

    I looked at both sites: The corporate training shows in the D&C videos. They are not perfect - in some cases they might be considered weird or unconventional. But they at least know to use a microphone other than the one built in to the mic when they interview people.
