"And the Winner is…." Part One of Three By Dave Andrusko Thanks to every one of you--and there were many--who took the time to reply to the survey question "In which format would you like to see Today's News & Views and National Right to Life News Today?" Before I tell you what you told me, a couple of words of explanation. The voting patterns were fascinating. The eventual winner led by a lot early on, later the results were much closer, and there were days when virtually all our readers chose one format over the over. Fascinating. The two choices included the one you are seeing today, which begins with a few sentences from each story, and you are hyperlinked to each of the stories. The other option was to do one complete story at a time, with links to other stories at the very bottom. Each format has/had passionate advocates. Each format (I learned to my chagrin) had technical issues which you graciously and kindly pointed out to me. I THINK we have them ironed out--if not let me know. Finally, I knew in advance that by asking, I would be disappointing probably 40% of the respondents. But many of you anticipated that, telling me, "I prefer 'x,' but if the majority chooses 'y,' I will read just as faithfully." So, enough preliminaries. At least for the immediate future we are staying with this format, the one we have used for most of the last year. That was the option you guys chose. I will occasionally have a week where we will utilize the other format, just to see whether people's opinions change or stay the same. Again, thank you, thank you, and thank you. Dave PS I hope you are using your social networks to pass these posts along. |
