    It says I’m tired of getting pop-up alerts about how some dude at some newspaper 200 miles from civilization in any direction is settling into his new job. There’s literally 4 people who care and they’re all in this thread. Go ask him yourself if it chaps your ass that much.

    My whole point is, you're basically saying, "Why are we giving Subject X so much attention? We need to quit talking about it." But by simply MENTIONING the subject in question, you're continuing to bring additional attention to it. Doesn't make much sense to me. Further, if you don't care about this anymore, why even look at the alert? You could just ignore like people do with their snooze alarm. You're just complaining for the sake of complaining.

    +1 but it seems to be that individual's modus operandi.

    For what it's worth, the Herald-Whig is now advertising for a No. 2 sports person. Same address as at the beginning of this thread.

    Checking in on Sesker this week. He needs to do a better job not loading up his sentences with adverbs to compensate for lack of action. But he finished up the week with two strong stories so I’ll let it pass.

    How do we think quarterly reviews are going to go?

    Given that most papers have a derisive "nickname" urinal for journal, trombone for tribune, comical for chronicle, spews or noise for news - curious what the locals do with the Herald-Whig. Feral Pig?

    The weird thing is the guy they hired a couple months ago last time is still there and covering stuff. So who knows?

    How does the sports editor position in Qunicy generate enough interest for a six-page thread?
