Bill Minutaglio is a really smart guy who has written many books. He is an eminent man of letters. Pretty much whatever he says true. You should read his current column in The Texas Observer. It contains important information.

Bill’s bio on Molly Ivins is a wonderful read. His column on the state of Journalism in the Texas Observer is always worth reading. nice kudo Tim.

Any time I hear about The Dallas Morning News or Belo making yet another attempt to even understand, much less profit from, the Internet on any level, I remind myself that Belo considered the CueCat a brilliant idea.

Tim, I’m a little embarrassed for all of us that he felt the need to parenthetically mention something so obvious.

FrontBurner® launched in March 2003, the first blog in Dallas run by a media organization. This is where the editors of D Magazine come to waste a tremendous amount of time.
