TV news elaborates on recent print stories

On Sunday, the Chronicle broke the news that area taxpayers might have to bail out the Sports Authority, despite repeated promises that such a thing could NEVER happen. In a followup blog post, Anne Linehan pointed out Gene Locke's connection to the Sports Authority. Yesterday, KTRK-13 followed up on how the news might affect the mayoral race. Chron.com's Houston Politics blog called attention to the KTRK story today (while noting that it failed to credit the Chronicle's reporting).

Way back on 2 September, the Houston Press posted that a change in UH's book-loan policy was forcing students to buy books at the offical university bookstore, as opposed to the off-campus College Store. Today, KTRK went to the campus to report further on the change. We can't say we're THAT surprised that the university would funnel book-loan proceeds towards its own bookstore.

In other news, we're pretty sure print media reported the mayoral candidates all exclaimed "me too!" at some gathering or another, and TV media presented audio/video confirmation of the "me too!" moments. But we're too lazy to track down those links tonight.
