War Heroes & Weblogs; ‘Midnight To Noon’ As Meteor Crashes

A report on war weblogs aired on NBC Nightly News this evening, and led off with a cyber-friend, David Ackerly (aka. Cyber Paperboy). It’s great to see (through TV cameras) more of his Troy, MI automotive garage than what was available through a picture or two on the Net. I have corresponded with Ackerly via e-mail since being introduced by former co-worker Mike Wendland (another long-time Internet reporter and blogger). It’s great to see Cyber Paperboy on national news, especially NBC’s (since I work for an NBC station).

Speaking of that job, co-worker Frank and I have spent the last couple of days working on a compilation of images and info on some of the many heroes involved in the war with Iraq: U.S. & British soldiers captured, missing, and killed (opens in new window). God bless our troops, friends, families…
