"Eye on The Record" has been experiencing technical problems, but will return soon with all of its bells and whistles.
From the looks of the front page today and Monday, The Record has been stuck in a news doldrums.
On Monday, Road Warrior John Cichowski found another obscure street to write about, even though only the poor souls who live there care what happens to it.
Better Living on Monday devoted a lavish cover story to promoting a wealthy restaurant owner in Englewood Cliffs -- more lopsided coverage that ignores all of the issues customers have when dining out.
Food Editor Esther Davidowitz followed that with another cover piece -- this one about a cookbook from multimillionaire celeb chef Daniel Boulud (BL-1 today).
Who's on first?
Who's on first?
The local staff struggled mightily to get the name and other information -- any information -- about the death of a pedestrian killed by a freight train in Dumont, and a sex assault in a Fort Lee motel (today's Local front).
The desperate editors had to plug a big hole on L-3 today with a photo of a major traffic catastrophe -- a backhoe that fell off a flatbed trailer on Route 46 west in Ridgefield Park.
A total of four embarrassing corrections ran today and Monday on A-2.
Guess he's not much of a celebrity chef. I've never heard of him.
ReplyDeleteWho are you? Someone who considers McDonald's haute cuisine? No wonder you don't know who he is.
ReplyDeleteDavid is Daniel's half-brother and lives in the hotel above DB Bistro Moderne in midtown Manhattan.
