Two opinions on the Chron from around the local blogosphere

The County Seat blog updates us on the activities of Chronicle metro/state/teen diarist Lisa Falkenberg, who apparently spoke recently to the grownups at a Democratic Party event that reportedly later involved serious discussion about candidates to run against Republican judge John Phillips, whom Falkenberg has criticized more than once in the Chronicle.

Shockingly, Alan Bernstein, who regularly posts about similar Republican Party events on Chron.com, did not chronicle this meeting for the newspaper. Perhaps one day! (Or maybe in lieu of that, we’ll get emails about nearly twenty-year-old Chron coverage of some related political event).

Meanwhile, over at The ClownVision Chronicles, John Royal posts the following about the Chron sports pages, although it might just as easily be said about other parts of the newspaper:

So why is the Chron failing? That answer is simple: the Chron treats its readers as idiots. And there’s only so long that a consumer can be treated with such utter contempt.

That seems to be the way the Chronicle‘s diminutive editor wants it to be. Fore!

Feel free to discuss further on the forum.
