It is frustrating when I'm trying to read what has been posted. I think it has to do with their new site, and needing all the fancy advertising to load before the news items. It is super s-l-o-w. As you have probably realized, many times the comments are much better/more entertaining than the original articles. Maybe PNJ does not want spotlight away from their original articles and on the posters? Who knows why. The Memphis Commercial Appeal, in contrast, has it set up the right way--comments load immediately. Pensacola has only this one paper though. monopoly. It would serve the community well if there was some competition, perhaps mobile could do a "pensacola edition?" or maybe the NWF daily news? <BR/><BR/>that might work. In the meantime, though, most people just get the news from the internet, cutting out the middle man (PNJ). and for blogging, I hear gulf coast gab is a pretty good site--check them out. Their posts load quicker than lightning, compared to PNJ.Jeff Bergoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12638001957494810839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317770170474039861.post-52466307774035714992008-07-27T12:58:00.000-05:002008-07-27T12:58:00.000-05:00I agree that free speech needs to be protected as ...I agree that free speech needs to be protected as long as there is no libel contained in the blogs. Jeff i noticed that PNJs blogs are much slower to load than the commercial appeals. Do you know why? I think the PNJ really doesn't like them as people read them and not their news. I think the bloggers should be sponsered by advertisers, which would make the issue easeier.

One thing I agree with them on is the protection of free speech. This article entry was interesting to me, for many reasons, and definitely not about education in Escambia county. But, sometimes I'm going to insert articles that interest me and that I think are pertinent, into the blog. One thing is certain, our local Daily paper and the alt weekly won't talk about this story.<BR/><BR/>But I'm going to follow this as it plays out, because I think anonymity on Blogs is a thorny issue that needs to be sorted out, and many web-based news papers are trying to figure out how to deal with it. <BR/><BR/>Our local area News sites are all dominated by anonymous postersm, with fewer than 10% of people posting with their real names. It's funny to me how many anonymous posters bash other anonymous posters for posting anonymously, though. Its funny to watch the pots calling the kettles black!Jeff Bergoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12638001957494810839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317770170474039861.post-33494255736526227962008-07-24T15:47:00.000-05:002008-07-24T15:47:00.000-05:00Two issues. first of all, the local ACLU branch i...Two issues. first of all, the local ACLU branch is fairly weak and ineffective. When was the last time they have done anything? Issue two, what does the Sherrif's office in Memphis TN have to do with Education in Escambia County?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
