| | The One True b!X's PORTLAND COMMUNIQUE |
 | | Over at Metroblogging Portland, Betsy picks up on all of this, including a comment we posted to the dormant PDX Media Watch, in which we asserted that a Greensboro-like experiment likely would never happen out of The Oregonian, mainly due to the difficult wall between the paper and its affiliated (and much-lambasted) website, OregonLive. |
 | | As for just what it is The Oregonian has planned (we do know that they recently received a presentation on podcasting from a local blogger), we're as in the dark as anyone else at this stage. |
 | | After a literal reduction in the size of the paper its printed on, a round of layoffs last year, a move out of the city it covers, another round of layoffs, and the elimination of its business section, it's somewhat hard to swallow the assertions that all is well. |
