I understand that Jennifers column will no longer be in the Cleveland Post. I, for one, will miss it. It was down to earth and hit home. I laughed out loud many times when reading her humble opinion. Anyone know why they are not carrying it anymore? I guess I will be writing to the editor. Jenn - do you have the scoop? I see JT is still in the paper this week. Who is the new columnist with the interesting picture - Ted Atchley?
News to me:shock: Maybe with a new baby, softball, full time job, husband and home, she just doesn't have time to do it anymore - totally understandable.
FMO2, you're so sweet. This was not my decision, I'm really going to miss it. I've poured 6 years of my life into that column, and I've made a lot of friends because of it. It hurts my heart to think that it's gone. :cry:
Jen, I'm not real thrilled with the quality of that paper anymore anyway (your column not included, of course.) You did a great job for those 6 years... and now you can be open for bigger and better opportunities!!!
^^^yup :evil: . I always turned to the oped page to read your column...even before I knew you! I think it stinks what they did. They very well may lose a large following because of it. At least I hope so. It wasn't right. Frogger
I think we should all write the publisher and complain. Jen's column was one of the bright spots in that paper.
I always loved reading your column (even though you never got back with my son on that yard work...LOL...just kidding). You always said what you felt and most of us could relate on so many different levels. The CP has gotten pretty stinky lately. I don't read much past the front page anymore. It's a waste of trees....my humble opinion. I don't know what happened but I think they have made a mistake removing your column. I hope you will continue to write in some way.
:lol: :lol: Now maybe they'll get Stinger-6 to write a column,hard hitting editorials on different subjects
Opinion Column Okay I don't know what transpired but I can say that I loved reading Jennifer's column. I would read it first THEN check the rest of the paper. Sorry to see it go.
You guys are all very sweet. This was as much of a shock to me as it is to you. I was informed by the editor via email last week that the paper was going through some changes, and that they were revamping their editorial content, and that due to that, my column was being cancelled. When I spoke with the managing editor via phone this week, she said the same thing, just in a nicer way. I really enjoyed my little corner of the paper, and because of it, I've met some great people. I hate that it's over, I probably would've written it until I was too old to see the keyboard, lol....
To be honest, your section and the classifieds are all I ever read. Very rarely did another story catch my eye. I don't like the way they are doing it now inserting that other paper with it.
Did you do it for the money, or for the love? If the latter, maybe you and the webmaster here at 4042 can work out something where he'll give you a weekly corner of the site.
Well, then, make your fans happy and drop a note to the webmaster. I must admit that I didn't read your column all that often, but what I did read of yours I did like.
