Capital New York

HipHopSays commented on 'Times' will end partnerships with N.Y.U., CUNY on hyperlocal blogs

I agree with others that the fort greene/clinton hill local has been more fluff and less substance....and while i would like to get my ire up on this ... i am clear that kids (journo students) are not up to the task of understanding the nuances of discerning what's worthy of the shoe leather to report (hey they're still learning) and that if anything this is a bit of a failing on the Times part. i think there's alot of newsworthy neighborhood issues to report and the online platform is the best way to report those events....
