The Huntsvillan introduces sections
"You mean, like a real newspaper?" ask astonished readers.
Steph Mamber, President, CEO, COO, CFO, and Chairman of the Board of Directors of The Huntsvillan, Inc., has proudly announced the introduction of sections to The Huntsvillan.
"It's about doggone time," she said.
The four sections, titled Say What?, Public Accountability, the Department of Human Endeavor, and the Humor Pen, correspond to the four types of journalism produced by The Huntsvillan. Each is readily accessible via a ribbon (desktop computer, tablet) or drop-down menu (cellphone) at the top of the main page.
Say What? looks at everyday life in Huntsville. It has examined local pay, SHSU football, and recent changes at the Huntsville Item, among other things.
Public Accountability looks at the effectiveness of local government: the city and county, the schools, the hospital district – everything from sidewalks to last year's proposed hospital bond.
The Department of Human Endeavor examines creative, expressive, and innovative activity of every type – from art to music to film. It is the province of The Huntsvillan's Chief Humanist, Mary-Brett Stringer.
The last section, the Humor Pen, looks at the light side of life in Huntsville and Walker County. It has poked fun at everything from our competition to, well, The Huntsvillan itself.
Current production rates are one article weekly, more or less rotating across these four sections. Thus, each section adds a new article roughly once per month.
"Drives me crazy," said Mamber. "Our shareholders expect better. But here we are."
Sections will be kept current, with new articles added as they are published. As always, every Huntsvillan article is free to read after a seven second video.
