Comments on: Reaping The Angst http://www.decaturmetro.com/2009/04/23/reaping-the-angst/ Decatur Georgia News, Events, Atlanta News Tue, 16 Sep 2014 04:07:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.0 By: Decatur Metro http://www.decaturmetro.com/2009/04/23/reaping-the-angst/#comment-8581 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 13:43:39 +0000 http://www.decaturmetro.com/?p=20705#comment-8581 Hack, in many ways the two are complementary. However, over the past year and a half there have been multiple occasions where the AJC has pulled stories from this resource and never once given credit or even mentioned this “great local blog” that they apparently find an invaluable resource. The most we ever got was “local blogs.”

Now I’m not one to hold grudges, but this breeds animosity. Not just with me, but with bloggers all over ATL. If we had a free and open relationship, like the one I have with the guys at Creative Loafing, you would find me more than cordial.

And while you may want to chalk up this snark to a personal grudge by an egotistical blogger, an array of other angry ATL bloggers seem to speak otherwise.

The other comment is simply a cute observation that the AJC is moving more to the blog model. This after years of poo-pooing that very format seems rather ironic to me.

It will post a banner headline followed by a one paragraph story with only sketchy details.

C’mon it’s not like this blog and the
ajc are competition for each other. If anything,
they are complimentary. And, your next item,
where did that come from?
