Words that go together (per The Richmond Times-Dispatch)
When using their search function, they give you this helpful tip:

keywords (separate keywords with a comma - ex: party, poker, George Bush)

Of all the examples they could have used; I would have preferred ex: incompetent, drunk, George Bush, but I think they got the idea right.

2. Wow what a horrible website that is
The old one was bad but Media General decided to try to meld all of their newspaper holdings onto one site and it is almost unnavigatable.

I have sold/advertised in "the paper" several times over the last few months (with mostly great success I must say) but checking to see if an ad appears, and we are talking about me knowing specifically what I am looking for, is impossible on the website. I had to do by stores and leaf through the paper to find them.

Blech.

3. 'tis a mess, ain't it. And you're right - it's not like it was stellar before
Oh, well. They're still one-up on Channel 12's website where, for at least two years now, those things on your car that help it stop are "breaks."

4. 12
Not only does the weather department NEVER get it right Jim Duncan in particular mentions every weather phenomenon possible so that no matter what he can say "we mentioned that yesterday" and he says that almost everytime I see him but they don't actually exist-I have never seen any other media/news source that doesn't show up on google. I have seen several stories that I wanted to find online and so I googled them and nothing NADA shows up. They even fail to post some of their own stories on their own website (btw that thing ranks too).

The morning show is blatantly RW shills, I have no idea why I watch it but I do.
