Reporting, writing and editing the news -- so 1980s!
Via Romenesko, a memo from Patch.com's editorial
boss urging editors and writers to produce more content. From the memo:
If one of your sites is producing less than 4 posts a day (and unfortunately, there are a lot of these — nearly 350) immediately talk to that editor about it.
This should not be a punitive conversation, it should be a collaborative discussion about how to improve things. (Are they spending too much time reporting and writing long articles? Are they too caught up in editing freelancers?)

Shouldn't that be "fewer than 4 posts a day"?
