Art, media, opinion and ideas
Weekend HeraldOriginally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. Rather a dull affair again. (Wiki Raw Notes) Like eating potato waffle after potato waffle, reading the Herald is journalistically un-nutritious, without any of the racy deep-fried-mars-bar lunacy of a full blown tabloid.
Sunday Independent, 12th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. As many will know by now, having been linked to from Bloggorah of all places, the wiki notes for the Sunday Independent are complete.
I'm aware that I'm being shown up by my fellow Rounders, but I intend to catch up with a mighty burst of Raw Noting this weekend. In the meantime, I'd just like to drizzle some half finished thoughts onto your screen. Mostly, what started out as a bit of a lark has ended up being a bit more serious.
Irish Independent, 11th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. (Tabloid Edition)One of the dullest papers to do the Raw notes for. However, some points to note do occur.
Irish Examiner, 11th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. My notes on Saturday's Examiner are up on the wiki. There were lots of re-prints, a huge reliance on PR, and precious little journalism.
Well we're stuck into the raw reports now, and no mistake. But while we regroup and gird ourselves for the big push to the next level (who knows what surprises the Sunday Indo will have for us?) I thought I'd do a simple bit of linking. In truth, I've been doing research anyway for the essay that will eventually emerge from all this raw info.
Irish Times Business This Week, 10th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. A break down for the Business This Week supplement to Friday's Irish Times. I will say that the quality of the actual journalism articles is markedly high.
Daily Irish Mail v 4 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. The Raw Notes on this paper are now available on the wiki. This represents the full paper, as opposed to the Irish Times graph below, which only covers the Home News pages for Friday.
After a very pleasant, though surprisingly wearing, trawl through yesterday's papers it was agreed by all those present to meet again the following day in the same spot (Westin Mezzanine, or Atrium as styled by some) at 2pm. So if you're in town pop in and prepare to be handed a Sunday supplement to ponder.
Piaras Kelly thinksIt isn’t hard to think why some people hold blogs in such disdain given the fact that there’s all this chatter about the phrase ‘Web 2. 0?, but in terms of some of the biggest stories which have been in the news recently such as the Afghan hunger strikers in St Patricks Cathedral, Irish bloggers have been relatively silent.
