New flag, other changes announced by Connor in Page One column

Richard Connor explains the new look ("more professional") and other changes in his column. Somewhere, Deb Withey is rolling over in her grave. He also says the biggest threat to newspapers are... reporters who cover the media. Fuckin' press.

Gotta love that Dick Connor. Was he a high school cheerleader?

The part where he writes about the TL becoming a multimedia company is a joke, right?

Check out the videos section. Cutting edge shit. The draft horses video is so good I downloaded to my iPod.

What's in it for me? Besides the "Perpetua Titling Bold"?

Well, everyone on my block was left agog by the announcement of the five new delivery vans.

And who can overlook the two new digital billboards on the Cross Valley? If I were one of the TV stations in town I'd have a camera standing by to cover the first accident caused by digital rubber-neckers.

This is the most exciting news since one of the papers (I honestly forget which one) ran an ad campaign saying its ink smeared less than the competition's.

Keep you eye on the prize, Rich: cover the news better than the other guys.

That's five new delivery vans in the colors of our nation's flag, by the way. Long may she wave.

This is the Connors' way of deflecting attention from that abortion of a website he created.

I like the new nameplate.

What's the name of the paper again?

can't say that I like the new nameplate. he said it was easier on the eyes. I disagree. It isn't aesthetically pleasing at all.

I wonder if Connor will use the same font on the "for sale" sign in a year?
