Guy Kewney's blog demolished
06/02/06 13:10 Coffee machine moments
I know you don't need yet another batch of witterings
from me today but I had to draw your attention to the
unfortunate demise of
Guy Kewney's blog
at VNU. It appears, according to fellow
blogger
Kieran McCarthy
(well worth a look if you're into IT journalism in
any way) that VNU didn't consider it worth keeping
once they'd bought The Inquirer.
I've known Mike Magee, who edits and owned The Inquirer, for more years than either of us usually care to remember. He's a damned good journalist and his stuff for VNU will be superb. The thing is, though, dear VNU (if you're reading), Kewney is also one of the best in his field.
Maybe the thought of employing more than one good journalist for online news is beyond them...
