When I took my semi-forced move to lower East Texas in January, a friend of mine in the biz warmed be that if I thought editorials and columns at The Dallas Morning News were too conservative, I hadn’t seen nothing yet — that the Chron was often not much more than a right-wing whack job.
Well, whether it is that or not, I do, having perused an entire Chron for the first time while visiting a good friend in Houston for a convention, I see something else to bitch about.
How can it’s weather page not have Texas high and low temps from the previous day, let alone be missing national temperature extremes.
The Eagle, out of Bryan-College Station, I’ll give a pass on them for the same omission, but not the Chron.
My take on the mainstream media, especially the newspaper biz. As a former long-term Dallas Metroplex resident, this is often focused on the sometimes good, and the often not-so-good (compared either to what it could be or what it used to be) of A.H. Belo's primary publication, The Dallas Morning News.

God, is the Chron’s telemarketing persistent, or what?
Thank doorknobs for caller ID, so I can just refuse to answer the phone whenever a 713 area code shows up. Even the Dallas Symphony Orchestra wasn’t this persistently annoying.
I do NOT want you, Houston Chronicle. I get the BCS Eagle for free at work. Besides, from everything I know, you’re even more in the way of conservative whackjobs on the op-ed page than the Snooze is.
