What's this blog really about?

You may notice a variety of topics here - from business, to charity promotion, even to local news, but the primary reason this blog was created was to alert readers to the hostile atmosphere and sexual harassment at The Danville Register & Bee. The readers and creator of this blog want a FULL FRONT PAGE apology in the Danville Register & Bee, plus the disciplining of those individuals involved. Until then, we'll continue to post regular updates. To tolerate THIS kind of behavior by a major media network is intolerable. And this isn't just ONE instance. Media General has been sued nationwide for racism and sexism, yet they CONTINUE to keep the offenders employed. Why? And why am I doing this? TRUTH compels me.

Mac still employed...

Well dear readers....Mac McLean and all the rest of Danville's videophiles are still employed with Media General. Those who care to object to the hostile atmosphere there in the newsroom are not.

I have been asked by a couple of people if I'd be interested in working for a new newspaper in town. I'm considering it. Seriously considering it. As folks have told me "Competition is good." I agree.

I'll be back in a few days. I need some time to consider this and get the details hammered out. I'd appreciate your input on how well a new paper, or the revival of an old one ;-D would fare. Please email me with your comments!

And thanks!
