Urgent: Rochester said launching for-pay site
This just in from Anonymous@7:17 p.m.:
"We (Rochester) evidently are going to unveil a Website that will require paid subscriptions. Our editor Karen Magnuson announced it last week and our digital editor Traci Bauer has been showing it to groups and training people. It is for news only and it is not on the corporate system. It will be called Roctoday.com. I think it will go up late in April or early in May. It has been a quiet project until now."
Can anyone confirm -- and add detail? Please post your replies in the comments section, below. To e-mail confidentially, write gannettblog[at]gmail[dot-com]; see Tipsters Anonymous Policy in the green rail, upper right.
