03/02/09 Greenwich Roundup Reader Asks For A Clarification

I really enjoy reading your blog;you do a great job of providing a great cross section of news and information. However, I was surprised to see you note that WGCH Radio doesn't post community events on its website.

There is a button on our website for Community Events which links to Viva Pop. They administer our information for us.

I hope that clarifies any confusion.

COMMENT:

Dear Jeff,

I owe you and WGCH an apology.

I don't know how I over looked the button at the top of your website that has a link to the Viva Pop Community Calender.

So For The Record WGCH has a link to community events.

Greenwich Roundup will endeavor to do a better job when reporting on WGCH in the future.

However, It Should Be Noted That Greenwich Roundup Is Not The Only One To Suffer From Foot In The Mouth Disease....
