Watching the Herald

Conductor of Cuban-American Pundits and Babalu fame has started a new blog called Herald Watch.

Many local bloggers, myself included, often quote and critique Miami Herald articles and columns. This has been no more evident in the past few days with the story of the El Nuevo Herald reporters being fired over a conflict of interest. However, I believe Conductor's new blog is the first one to actually focus on "taking a peek over the Herald's shoulder".

It's a welcome addition to the local blogosphere, and a blog that can catch on pretty quickly as well as serve an important role in the community.

Bob Norman's The Daily Pulp has been critiquing South Florida's newspapers for quite some time now.

I would be surprised if Gomez's "watching of the Herald" turns out to be anything more than another forum to rant and rave about how liberal, weak-kneed and inept the Miami Herald is.

*yawn*

The Daily Pulp does critique our newspapers, but it's not exclusive in that sense. I think Conductor's new blog will focus solely on Herald stuff.

"Liberal, weak-kneed and inept". Unfortunately, the Herald shows traits of all three. Not all the time, mind you, but just enough to remind us.

Nothing like making a judgment before you read it. Yawn.
