This so speaks to me as a photojournalist making the jump to working as an Indie VJ. Michael hit it dead on – The democratization of news is key to keeping people truly informed instead of filtering the news based upon corporate agendas – well done!!! WTH is with someone making that obscene amount of money to read someone else’s copy???

off topic a wee bit…
i wanted to point out to “mel taylor” the fact that you’re leaving a gaping whole in the myfox concept by not pointing the entire string of names “you” currently own to its corresponding site.
myfoxphilly and all the myfox names are a great way to tie together stations across the country. the problem lies when “you” assume i’ll know to contract philadelphia to philly. it is a serious mistake many myfox destinations are now overlooking. considering “you” own them, why not use them?
you’re not alone. myfoxnewyork still doesn’t resolve to myfoxny…and vice versa. i assume it is like this in other cities as well.
i said it when fox first announced this move and i’ll say it again “great idea”.
