Worth the Read
Secretly, this girl is using an iPad. Which is why I’m going to be listing websites you should be reading regularly:
College Media Matters | Student journalist? Casual observer of student media? Then this blog is worth a look. Recently they examined SCOTUS nominee Elena Kagan’s stint at her college newspaper.
Dallas Dirt | Perhaps you don’t live in Dallas at all. Perhaps you do. But this blog is great at featuring historic homes and other architectural porn. Just ignore the realtor-esque sales pitches.
Frontburner | Another blog from D Magazine. This one’s great for Dallas news. If you live in Dallas, then you should be reading it.
Hipster Puppies | A novel and hilarious concept.
Hyperbole and a Half | A very witty blog featuring hand-drawn images created by using the Mac equivalent of MS Paint. If you’re not laughing up a gut while reading the fish story, then I really don’t see how you could ever have a sense of humor.
Letterheady | I love stationery. Therefore all of this letterhead fascinates me. Want to see what Harry Houdini used as his letterhead? It’s on there. So is Tesla’s. And DC Comics. And a host of others.
Unfair Park | Another fantastic Dallas news blog.
Overheard in the Newsroom | Quote-worthy moments from newsrooms across the country. My favorite? “Editor: “Multiple exclamation points are a sign of a diseased mind.”
In the Pink | Funny. Snarky. Liberal. Newsy. Blog. About. Everything.
