I am one of the many alums listed by Cosmo, and I can speak well of both the newspaper and Flagstaff, as well as the managing editor. You'll have either the NAU football or basketball beat, both of which will give you plenty of opportunity to write in any direction you like. Both are relatively...

Bend is the home of Deschutes Brewery, which is only the best beer on God's green earth.

That's funny -- I can't SEE you outside my window, but I can certainly feel you staring in. But seriously, yes, my TPIR episode aired on the day of the VT shootings. I think we're all hoping for a slightly calmer mid-April day this time around. Bird -- no doubt, there's a whole lot of luck in...

You presume correctly. I got "the call" about three weeks ago after auditioning more than six months prior. I have been specifically instructed not to post anything about winnings online before the air date on 4/12/10, but I can say with confidence that I did not win another grandfather clock...

Dear Bird, the answer is ... donnie23. Taped in Culver City yesterday. Airs April 12. I await the critiques from SJ Nation.

Kantowski, Miech, Haney, Steve Silver ... they gutted sports. Five years ago, this was an APSE Top 10 section. Now it doesn't exist. More than 20 lost their jobs overall, and it wasn't that large of a newsroom.

Caught Nightline on Friday, they did about 15 minutes on the book, including excerpts from some of the letters. Ugh, just painful. I'm sure many of you, like me, talked to Tillman at ASU or with the Cardinals. I'm gonna keep those as my first Tillman memories because the rest is too infuriating.

For the last two posts: The name's not mine to share and yes, he left and came back.

This is correct. The guy has ties to the paper that go back 10 years.

Ditto from me on Craig from my days in AZ and my wife's days at the EVT. Absolute crime what they did to the Trib and I'm glad to see Craig on his feet here.

Wow, that hanging curve is still flying ...

The years I spent in PR taught me that, sadly, this is exactly the opposite of what many PR people think. Many of them want non-journalists because they are often more willing to develop and pitch stories that former journalists know are not stories at all. If you bring your news judgment into...

Agreed, and this is an NAU grad speaking. The selection in Flagstaff pales (literally) in comparison to what is roaming Mill Avenue on any given night.

I wouldn't say no one cares about the Republic there, but there are definitely some who take it by default because they don't like the Daily Sun product. I ran into a fair number of people who told me that when I was reporting there -- then again, maybe they just meant I sucked, who knows. The...

College town, second-home population. If you adjusted that 60k number for year-round residents who might take the paper on a regular basis, it would move down. Beyond that, many folks in Flag prefer to take the Arizona Republic instead so they can (at least in meatier Gannett days) get more...

I lived in Flagstaff for six years and spent three of them at this paper. Anyone who wants whatever bit of knowledge I can offer, let me know via PM. There are also a couple of other AZDS vets on the board who I'm sure will weigh in here.

I heard through the walls that Reno took another hit of a couple dozen people today. Anyone know more?

Glad Ed landed on his feet, he's good people.

I carry a BB Curve for work and it's perfect for work functions -- good phone (on Verizon) with best email for business. Web experience is very basic, but functional. Played with iPhone a bunch for personal phone before ultimately sticking with VZW and getting an LG Dare. If you're a heavy Web...

Then the short sale has hope through that avenue, even if it hammers my credit for two years. As for CityCenter, the bulk of what they sold was to high rollers (primarily from the Asian markets) and the second-home crowd wealthy enough to afford a playpad for a few trips per year. Of course...
