And Here I Thought Roanoke Had a Newspaper ...

The Newseum in Washington (above), a new museum about the press, has a marvelous little Web-based interactive gizmo that'll give you a look at newspapers all over the world. Take a look here and click on a city, any city--except maybe Roanoke--and you get a newspaper.

It appears Roanoke has no daily, weekly or otherwise newspaper. That was sudden.

UPDATE (May 22, 8 a.m.): According to an observant reader, the local daily is now part of the interactivity. Somebody must be reading this blog, I'd say. Heh, heh, heh ...

  3. Hi, Dan - Sometimes the fronts don't get sent properly through to the Newseum, and so it appears as though there's no newspaper on that particular day.
