Blogdeath is a Terrible Thing [Building Cincinnati Over?]

facepalm

This post over at Building Cincinnati is kind of a bummer.  It looks like Kevin LeMaster is marking the end of the always-stellar Cincinnati development/architecture blog, and that’s a shame.  Too, he seems legitimately distressed about the matter, given the tone and timbre of the post:

Unfortunately, economic realities have slapped me in the face and made [...]

Are We Really Gonna Whine About This Again? [Come On, Enquirer]

Newspapers

You’d think that the Cincinnati media was the St. Louis Cardinals or something.  Came across this post at the ever-dumb Enquirer’s Opinionati blog responding to this story about Joey Votto that appeared in the Sunday NYT.  The story itself made some offhanded comment about how OTR, and by extension, Cincinnati, is somehow a “Northern outpost of [...]

And then I read the story. Apparently, Darlene Bishop, one of the co-pastors of the Solid Rock Church, perhaps best known as the creators of Terminator Jesus, is turning over her late brother’s estate [...]

Just What The Enquirer Needs: Another Blog! [Throwing Crap at the Wall to See What Sticks]

facepalm

I noticed this thingy appear yesterday and thought it strange that our dear newspaper is trying its hand at yet another blog.  This one, though, seems to have a lot less direction:

Our goal is to lend a megaphone to Greater Cincinnati and find out what’s on your minds. From politics to pop culture, there’s always that [...]
