Hey Danny, Thanks for the listing on your blog. I plan on placing a link back on http://www.saveourtrade.blogspot.com. I happen to discover your site by reviewing our site’s visitor stats.

These stats provide a visitors location and the site they came from. Someone in Chicago using a Tribune server left your site and came over to saveourtrade and I happen to follow that link back here. It’s a mystery who in Chicago comes to our site every day, but not why.

Chicago Tribune Management has been visiting Ed’s site(the blogging pressman)as well as saveourtrade for quite some time now. Management certainly isn’t very happy about us blogging, but their right to publish is build on the same amendment as is ours to blog.

Another gannett site for the list is, http://www.shameongannett.com

Thanks a million for the plug Danny. Running out the door for another media party before the Los Angeles Times is hit with the bad news.

Peace,

Anyone have one that’s actually bullish on the industry?

Dude…mega kudos on these. Especially the Tribune-related ones. I hadn’t seen most of those except for Bob Norman’s Pulp.

This is the worrisome one.
