Miami New Times Steps Into Hispanic Journalist Controversy
Chuck Strouse's June 29 column addresses "hypocrisy, bullying, and misplaced priorities among the nation's top Latino journalists," specifically focusing on an argument between Sam Diaz, Washington Post assistant technology editor and financial officer for the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, and Monica Rhor, an Orange County Register reporter who edited the newspaper for the recent NAHJ convention. The point of contention is a quote by Diaz printed in the convention newsletter: Diaz alleges it was inaccurate and misleading, but Rhor refused to run a correction. Both Rhor and the NAHJ president, Rafael Olmeda, respond to the Miami New Times column in letters printed on Romenesko. "It saddens me that the accomplishments of such a talented group are being overshadowed by a debate which I consider unwarranted," Rhor says.

Boise Weekly Founder Running for Congressional Seat
Andy Hedden-Nicely is running for Idaho's First Congressional District as the candidate for the United Party, a political party he founded last year whose slogan is "re-taking the middle ground." He faces opposition from those who consider his candidacy a potential Nader-esque spoiler tipping the November election to the Republicans, Boise Weekly reports. Even BW contributor Bill Cope dedicates a column to "this United Party nonsense": He begins by calling Hedden-Nicely a "fine fella," but concludes, "as far as your 'United Party' goes, pal ... unity my butt. Until Republicans have something other than beastliness to offer, this is one Democrat who thinks we would only debase ourselves by meeting them in the middle."

Gannett Starts Distribution Service in Lafayette, La.new
The Independent Weekly reports that the nation's largest newspaper chain plans to launch a newspaper distribution network in Acadiana, threatening to create havoc for independent publications in the area. Like the distribution schemes Gannett has already started in Greenville, S.C., and Jackson, Miss., the Lafayette operation will force the company's competitors to pay up in order to be displayed in news racks already filled with Gannett's suite of local publications. Jackson Free Press Publisher Todd Stauffer notes that Gannett "has a pretty bad track record" of trying monopolize local markets. "I wish they would take their vast resources and focus more on reporting, investigating, and telling us the stories we need to hear, as opposed to trying to knock the Thrifty Nickel out of business," he says. ALSO: E&P reports on Gannett's distribution plans in its current issue (available online for subscribers), noting that the rollout in Jackson "didn't go so smoothly" after Stauffer and the Free Press "almost single-handedly" turned it into a local controversy.
