Not Much Hope For Survival of Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
As many of you probably know, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel was involved in another ‘merger’. This time it’s most current owner group, Gannett (which also owned USA Today) merged with New Media Investment Group. And of course as is the nature of these mergers the new company will be sleeker and more efficient my […]
What We Are Reading
Two years ago when I took over publishing duties here at Blogging Blue, I added a feature called What We Are Reading. It contained the headlines from three or four mass media articles each day with the appropriate links. It was a disaster and I deleted them all..and no they aren’t coming back.
But if […]
USA Today/Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Doesn’t Know the Players Either
I can’t take credit for this one…it was brought to my attention by a friend…but JSOnline got this wrong big time:
And according to Johnson, Trump told Johnson he barely knew Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador who oversaw dealings with Ukraine.
emphasis mine
For those of you following along, Gordon Sondland is […]
In a number of articles that have appeared in the print edition over the past few days, and this one online about Senator Ron Johnson’s comments, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and by extension their parent USA Today are misleading the public on what the impeachment inquiry is really about. Their take:
The […]
Well after absolutely a ton of push back from all over the spectrum, Lafayette County pulled back a suggested ordinance that would prosecute journalists and the media if they didn’t publish county press releases about water pollution verbatim. And even though they’ve pulled back, they still want to claim what they want to do […]
Senator Ron Johnson Goes Off The Rails On Meet the Press
I think we should find the senator a room at the home next to Rudy Giuliani:
Senator Johnson should resign…this is not representing Wisconsin residents or the American people.
In what is one of the strangest moves that I can think of…the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel print edition blew up its obituaries. A few years ago when they phased out their classified ad section, MJS moved the obits to the back pages of the Business Section. Except they didn’t call them obituaries…they were old fashioned […]
Blogging Blue has published a couple of things recently about the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (digital presence JSOnline.com). Zach brought us The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Laughable Plea For Subscribers and earlier I presented Journalism In Milwaukee Takes Another Hit.
Just to make this clear I am a long long time subscriber to the […]
Trump’s Support In Wisconsin?
I am not going to go into great detail on who in Wisconsin supports Donald Trump…I’ll let the article speak for itself. It gets into breakdowns of college/non-college, rural/urban, gender, religious/not, etc. So if you are a policy wonk, you’ll love it. Here’s the intro though so you can get an idea of where […]
Not that long ago, when many towns and cities had competing daily newspapers, one would be conservative and the other liberal…and were often specifically GOP or Democratic leaning. I believe in those days, The Milwaukee Sentinel (the morning paper) was Republican in nature while The Milwaukee Journal (the evening paper) supported Democrats. Later as papers […]
