Friday question session

A few questions to ponder over the weekend;

If you could...

Watch a nightly newscast dealing with news concerning only Stockton, Lodi, Manteca and Tracy... would you?
Watch your kids, cousins, brothers, sisters, best friends, high school, little league, or any sports event live and on demand...would you?
Keep track of the entertainment that is going on around your town be it the night life, family friendly events or just something to do on a Saturday...would you?
Visit one place to find all of this... would you?

What if I told you that place is on the Internet, would that stop you from wanting it? Do you think you could convince those who are scared of the web to embrace local media from an unfamiliar medium?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, then you understand the importance for a local media presence in Stockton. In the next two weeks, I will be announcing a gathering in which I hope to assemble a group of people who are interested in embarking on a bold new project to take our city's media back from Sacramento. In the meantime take a few minutes to mull over these questions.

If at anytime you thought to yourself, "why," then consider yourself not right for this job....
