I love flipping through old magazines – from the 40s, 50s, 60s, especially. So much retro-goodness! Stumbled across this gem recently, circa 1968. It’s always time for news!

Wonder if there’s any $25K prizes for outstanding blogging…? Sex-offender program discussed: a delicate subject, but I added some informative links at the bottom of the article to make it more useful. Candidate profiles: I like this – candidates for Montana House & Senate. No rehearsed scripts, no...
Having tons o’ fun at my new job, learning how the news is “made,” and picking up newsy terms (vosotvo)! And I’ve made some progress in (hopefully) making KRTV.com easier to use. The software that we (stations branded as “Montana’s News Station”) use is called WorldNow Producer, and it’s…well, it’s not as intuitive and flexible as most blogging software (WordPress, etc)…but I’m learning how to work with it. From experience, and from talking with a few other people, I...
