It was nice to see the Online edition with my column, but I have mixed feelings about reader access to it right now. Let me explain.
When you Google up the Times-Standard you get a front page that is only partly updated with the day's content. For example, if you wanted to read my column today you wouldn't see it under Opinion. The content in that area is nearly all past postings. However, if you subscribe to the Times-Standard Online Edition (their E-Edition) you'll be able to actually read the entire current newspaper. Opinion and all.
My problem is that I feel like many readers aren't going to be able to find me Online. Of course, I have no say on how things are done with the T-S. They've managed to get by without my advise for a long time.
It's just kinda ironic that the Eureka Reporter's Online edition is always updated and free to anyone who Googles the publication. I say that because the reputation they have as right-wing conservative platform still offers the public equal free access to the publication.
Maybe things will change.Who knows? Right now I'm going with the flow. I really have no complaints. I've already heard good things about today's column from my veteran activist buddy Carl Young who has emailed it out to people he knows.
FOR THE RECORD
You can Google my past columns in the Eureka Reporter by checking out their archives and putting in "As it Stands" with their search engine. Enjoy!
