A missed opportunity for local news coverage

Today was the day I was expecting something from the Chronicle on Mayor White's speech at the Progressive Forum.

Instead, what we have is a Dina Cappiello Q and A with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

While I am sure Cappiello found the interview interesting, I would imagine more Chronicle readers would have appreciated a report on Mayor White's speech -- you know, since he is Houston's mayor.

RFK Jr. coming to Houston isn't as good a story as Mayor White speaking on the same day he announced his new $2 billion Metro expansion plan.

Oh, and I did email the Chronicle this morning and ask if today's RFK Jr. Q and A was the extent of coverage we would be getting on Mayor White's speech. I haven't received a response yet.
