Today, the Chronicle‘s Dan Feldstein beefs up the Chronicle‘s previously miniscule coverage on Wayne Dolcefino’s spat with KTRK-13 over a story Dolcefino was working on the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, a story that was ultimately spiked.
Feldstein covers ground that Dolcefino was apparently planning to cover in his story: the rodeo’s lavish spending on offices and media PR, and its level of charitable contributions relative to other charitable organizations.
Laurence Simon hints that there’s more of the story to be told yet (think May sweeps), and Banjo Jones is somewhat amused at Chronicle editor Jeff Cohen. Tom Kirkendall also offers some thoughts.
PREVIOUSLY: Is Wayne Dolcefino out at KTRK?, Wayne is out of the building… for now, DMN: Rodeo gives Houston reporter a rough ride.
UPDATE: Banjo Jones hears from Dan Feldstein.
