Loading ...Last Friday we posted our last Newslink. We’re looking for new ways to enhance the news and we would love to hear from you. After all, this whole news thing is for you. So you tell us how you’d like us to deliver it to you. An idea we’re working on is to create a [...]
There’s a lot going on inside the newsroom today. During the morning budget meeting where we discuss upcoming stories and their various statuses, it came over the scanner that Senior High had to evacuate students due to an electrical fire in an elevator. Off went our esteemed photographer, Barrett to try and catch a good [...]
Starting tomorrow (02/06/08) Newslink will be afternoons-only. Eventually Newslink will evolve into a news package style and we will no longer have anchors for the cast. You will be able to watch a rotating list of top video stories at your leisure. But it will take time and planning to get us to that point [...]

It’s the day before Thanksgiving and all through the newsroom, all the creatures were stirring…
