News Get yer Wooten Widget here
Posted by Scott Henry @ScottTheHenry on Thu, Apr 23, 2009 at 6:20 PM
CB Hackworth, a long-age CL editor who transitioned into broadcast journalism, has a great semi-new blog, Certain Speculation. But beyond his well-informed observations about Atlanta media, his site boasts a recently-added feature that alone is worth the price of admission: the Jim Wooten Retirement Countdown Clock. And it's available as a widget!
No longer will you need to keep checking your calendar to see how much longer you'll be forced to endure GOP press releases thinly disguised as the ramblings of a hack conservative columnist. Now you can just check your Wooten Widget.
But, before you get too excited, remember that old Jim will not be going gently into that good night. He generates far too many web hits for the AJC to cut him loose completely. As Editor Julia Wallace recently revealed, Wooten will continue to write one column a week. With any luck, it'll be "Thinking Right," his Larry King-style "weekend free-for-all."
Pick a topic. Howzabout torture…?
