[PAA-Discuss] Hou. Chron and winter soldier reporting

[Alyssa Burgin]

Every time someone writes or calls a newspaper, they mark that up as
an actual interested reader. That guides coverage in the future.

People in Corpus Christi, the Hill Country, Dallas, Fort Worth, El
Paso, and so many others I could name would switch newspapers with you
guys in a minute. At least the Chronicle makes an effort. As revenues
fall and apathy reigns, this is more than most can say.
