R-J publisher interviewed on KNPR
Las Vegas Review-Journal publisher Bob Brown, interviewed Tuesday morning on KNPR's State of Nevada program, calls journalism "Job 1" for the newspaper. "We want a newspaper that Nevada can be proud of, and that Las Vegas can be proud of, that tells stories that are compelling, interesting," Brown told KNPR.
Commenting on suggestions that the newspaper is boring and predictable, Brown said:
"I think that we have to be exciting in the sense that we have to deliver information to people that is compelling and that is interesting. We have to be able to look into subject matter and find things out. We have 125 reporters, so we have more assets, media assets, than any other source out there. And we need to be able to coalesce all of that energy and all of that information into a product every day that is delivered on the doorstep and that people can look at and say 'Now that's a great newspaper.' "
