| If you'll indulge me in a minute's self-promotion: I recently took on a new gig as the editor and lead writer for RochesterPolitics.com, a new startup website covering politics local to the Rochester area and a certain amount of statewide material.
We're launching with an exclusive interview from Congresswoman Louise Slaughter. (Part one and part two.)
The Slaughter interview was conducted by site owner Glenn Gramigna, but we'll soon have another interview, this one with Eric Massa, conducted by myself. If I can get Congressman Maffei's office to return my contacts, I'll try to collect the entire set.
Most of the coverage of RochesterPolitics will eventually focus on local items--city council, assembly, mayoral, etcetera, with a very healthy dose of statewide coverage, all in a more news-based format, and supported by local advertising, out of which a commission goes to keeping me fed, clothed, and equipped with enough gas in my car to see my girlfriend on the weekends. |
