Here and There On This And That Newspaper
Welcome to InkBlots, an informal discussion of the newspaper industry inside Mississippi and beyond. For those of you who aren’t familiar with me, I’m a career newspaper guy who started out in the production department of my hometown paper. I’ve worked as a reporter, editor and publisher and have recently joined our state press association as director of marketing.
I eat, sleep and breathe newspapers and still believe wholeheartedly in their relevance to readers and their uniquity as a source of information. No other medium delivers the content that we do to millions of readers in our state and the billions around the globe. Times may change, but the importance of what we do, whether printed in ink or transmitted electronically, does not.
What we hope to accomplish with this blog is establish a meaningful dialog about the industry, specifically in our state. Your contributions and input are welcome and encouraged.
