  1. @CNCwpg @WinnipegLIVELOV @wfpnewscafe The @wfpnewscafe is just like the library, except we're licensed.
  2. Canadian Ctr for Child Protection officials @wfpnewscafe discuss return of Maryk kids to Wpg 4 years after abduction. twitter.com/danlett/status…
  3. @lornehanks @DrJonGerrard Dr. Jon was always top marks on policy. It was retail politics that proved elusive. IMHO.
  4. Bill Maher was cooking last night on the inherent lies in partisan rants: bit.ly/MOKrDV
  5. They're doing what? (Reaction at MFL offices when NDP extended Sunday shopping) bit.ly/LXmuNM
  6. @cherenkov_ @jedi_premier @policyfrog I could do this all day!. No seriously, I could.
  7. @policyfrog Well played.
  8. At city hall, P3 now stands for perturbed, pissed off and piqued: bit.ly/MHy9gu
  9. @mawwelch @dmcmonagle @CNCwpg @wfpnewscafe Citjournos liked hearing from someone who is not (literally and figuratively) a grey beard.
  10. @policyfrog Well put. But consider human nature in this: almost nothing in life is the same once you turn on a camera.
  11. @heyjturner @policyfrog @cherenkov_ @colincraig1 @stateofthecity Human nature - everyone is a bit different in front of camera, no?
  12. @colincraig1 Agreed. It's a challenge to do an interview with an audience. But I think it showcases work of good journos.
  13. @policyfrog @cherenkov_ @colincraig1 @heyjturner @stateofthecity You understand that it will encourage journos to "perform" in interviews?
  14. @H0PP @colincraig1 Spoken like someone who has no idea of how good journalists do their job. Well played.
  15. @colincraig1 Art of journalism is finding truth or meaning in an unorganized message. Public undervalues trad media in this regard.
  16. @heyjturner @stateofthecity @colincraig1 @cherenkov_ Sounds like something Kato devised for newspaper publisher/superhero Green Hornet.
  17. @colincraig1 @stateofthecity @cherenkov_ That's why we do live web interviews @wfpnewscafe. You get to see the whole thing.
  18. @stateofthecity @heyjturner @colincraig1 @cherenkov_ I've dreamed of transcript app; but listening to interview again is good methodology.
  19. @colincraig1 That's not a loaded question, is it? The assumption in your question is pretty stunning.
  20. @stateofthecity @colincraig1 @cherenkov_ Good journalists never fear the full transcript; poor journalists would never survive it.
