Quote ="jeffvickers"Just been looking for info for Tomorrow's game. Last update, Marshalls Featherstone interview.
In stark contrast to the Bradford T&A website. I count 9 Bulls articles in 3 days.
For the fairweather that hasn't attended many RL games, and is thinking of doing so, the Bulls have a strong presence in their local press while we have to rely on Social Media.
Does anyone want to start up a new Halifax News website/printing press and drive this shabby newspaper out of the area?'"
It is depressing what has happened to our local newspaper though its a sign of the times of printed media. There is no investigative journalism, little fact checking and limited proof reading. I would say however that the sport coverage is excellent for both teams (regardless of the website) with good articles, Dave Flemming's article is always worth a read and the good access given to the manager/coach and players is great.
I am not sure if there is a demand for another printed local newspaper but there is certainly room for an alternative online source.
