Oregon Media Insiders

Tim Russert died this afternoon in NBC's Washington Bureau. From what I understand he collapsed and could not be revived. I read someplace that it was thought to be a heart attack. He was 58 years old.

Sent the following e-mail to KATU: Why has Derek Sciba picture been taken down from the website?

Here is the answer I got back: Derek has moved on from KATU. We'll miss him, but wish him nothing but the best. Thanks for taking time to write!

So this begs the question: where did he go and was it his idea to go?

I'm surprised that no one else has mentioned this. Apparently, Sam Adams beer wants a couple of domain names that Mark Mason and Dave Anderson bought for Sam Adams candidate for mayor.

On Friday night (10/19) the 10:00pm newscast that KGW does on CW never made it to air at my house. I have directv and I don't know if that had something to do with that.

What do you all think of this. I think that this is a good idea and will teach the boys the lesson that they needed to learn.

The URL is from KGW http://tinyurl.com/295sxa but everyone covered it.

Thankfully nothing big happened today to interfere with the draft coverage. The thing that I find most interesting is that KGW claims an "exclusive" interview with Oden but I just go done watching a clip of KATU interviewing him.

I found it odd last night that all Matt, Bruce, Mark and Rod all were out for the night. Is there some kind of weather convention going on? Are they all going to be off today as well?

It must be May since KATU is featuring this on the front page of the website.

It seems that Don Imus is going to sue CBS. For more info. click on this: http://www.katu.com/news/entertainment/7315546.html

Is to make sure that this doesn't happen as often. Here is a link to a CNN article about the Duke Lacrosse Players.
