To err is human…..

Nov 18, 2013 Stephen Krauchick

Very early Sunday morning a shooting occurred in Bridgeport just before 3am, "man shot to the head" came across the EMS scanner.  Out the door I went to bring you and the rest of the media the news.  As I mentioned in an earlier article 3am is my bed time. I was back by 3:30am and now I had to edit the video, get photo frame grabs, upload the video and write the article.  3:30am is late even for me!  If anyone has ever edited by computer, your computer screen is not full size, it has the timeline, preview and program screen and lots of tools (see the photo). At that hour I was very tired and did rush to…

I need a time out!

Nov 12, 2013 Stephen Krauchick

Rough start to the week.  My son Alex will be taking over the reporting for the next couple of days.  I own a couple of other sites that I will shift my attention to during this time.  Alex is still learning so be gentle on  him with the comments and his reporting.  He's all I can afford! Today started with me being accused of sensationalizing the news because I titled a post manhunt, even though police were looking for two males with K-9.  Then because I described them as being African Americans I was accused of being politically correct.  A month earlier I was called racist because I described a suspect as dark skinned because it was uncertain if the…
