New Media Scores Another Hit
Gordon Edes is leaving the Globe for Yahoo.com. Gordon is one of my favorite baseball writers, and it's good to see him getting a national audience.
Hat tip, Projo Soxblog.
By the way, my offer to Murray Chass is still on the table.

The Chass story is still very odd. It is as if the Russian May Day picture has been edited to remove his face - why won't anyone write about this, or is the NY Times so poor a paper they don't realize the departure of a 40 plus year Hall of Fame reporter is news?
Sure he liked baseball as poetry and not as stats, but he was a source of union opinion. I do not see another reporter handling that beat - the print sports guys are pretty much management toadies.
