Chron.com makes a mess of columnists page, again

Chron.com recently updated its columnists page, after a similar update in May.

Austin politics reporter Peggy Fikac is now listed on the page, as is sports reporter “Gerald” Solomon.

Unfortunately, the RSS feed for Fikac’s individual columns is broken, and “Gerald” Solomon’s name is actually Jerome Solomon.

The food and wine columnists, who were added to the page in the last update in May (including a photo of Alison Cook that appeared for a short time, inexplicably), have been removed from the page for unknown reasons (it’s probably best to add those respective RSS feeds to a reader and forget trying to find them on Chron.com).

Does anyone check these web revamps before they go live?

UPDATE (06/23/09): Solomon’s name is fixed now (thanks for reading, guys! Glad we could help *wave*). Now about that Fikac RSS link?

UPDATE 2 (06/23/09): And now, the Chron.com web team has replaced some of the old orange-dominated design with…. a hideous, clashing green:

Chron.com goes green... and orange... ewww!

Do any grownups with taste preview these changes before they go live?
