Pure genius?

Posted on January 26, 2007 by Melissa Worden

I found this on Romenesko just now.

In his entry, he states:

… a Chron staffer says of the podcast idea: “I’m a little stunned by it, but some people think it’s genius.”

Oh, I so agree.

So all you journalists — if you need a laugh, check out the San Francisco Chronicle’s new podcast Correct Me if I’m Wrong.

I don’t think readers realize there’s a human being on the other end of the line — or the e-mail — when they complain.

I love that the Chronicle is adding comments to this podcast, too. Something I want to start doing with our podcasts at heraldtribune.com.

In this case, it’s especially interesting to read the reader reaction to the reader reaction.

There’s always a silver lining: At least they care enough to complain.
