From the supplier: Longtime Knight-Ridder newspaper editor Rich Oppel has released 11 TV commercials to tell Austin, TX residents about his approach to his new post as editor of the Austin American-Statesman. In the spots he attacks focus groups, criticizes the presence of anything but news on news pages, and warns that his newspaper will sometimes be outrageous. To some this implies an attack on the civic journalism movement and its focus on helping communities reach consensus, a movement identified with Knight-Ridder.
