I say it is about time! I have thought for quite some time that the newspaper industry was way behind the rest of the media business…providing all that content for FREE. What is up with that? Sure, it may have come as a surprise to most people when the Arizona Republic announced it […]

Today’s #MediaMonday has a game show theme. The idea followed a random Google search of my own name. Do you remember the TV show “To Tell The Truth? Viagra Online ” It shouldn’t take Peggy Cass, Orson Bean or Kitty Carlisle to figure this one out. “Hi, my name is Scott Hanson.” “Hello, my name […]
