Danielle Lerner leaving the Daily Memphian
Danielle tweeted this week would be her last at the DM. Took a job at the Houston Chronicle covering the Rockets and Astros. I guess she was here less than a year?

I think she did pretty well under tough circumstances. Calkins just mentioned she never got to actually meet the people she covered. That is really hard to imagine.

I heard she was disappointed with the lack of the alternative lifestyle being offered in the Memphis community.

RE: Danielle Lerner leaving the Daily Memphian
I liked Danielle's writing style. She used analytics in some articles, which I enjoyed. That being said, she didn't write nearly enough articles for a beat writer IMO.

Jason Munz at CA is pretty good. I would like to see him over at the DM.

Not being part of that culture I'm not sure what they are calling it these days.

This is not accurate. Just drive thru Midtown on a nice spring afternoon.

I can't. I get approached by too many fellers asking me for rolling papers.

WHO?

Kidding...she was a decent writer. I liked the frequency of her articles but there never was much analysis or commentary. Hopefully, next writer will be an upgrade.

Seems we all agree. No major loss here.

Good luck to her in the future.

I actually saw one of these devices a Tigers baseball game a few years ago. Very effective.

I think she did pretty well under tough circumstances. Calkins just mentioned she never got to actually meet the people she covered. That is really hard to imagine.

She seemed knowledgeable - especially compared to the other latest newbie, the football guy at the CA.
Gave good radio interviews and what I saw of the writing was okay.

I don't read the CA, so I can't speak to that entirely.
But I can say when he does podcasts or radio interviews, he sure seems like someone too eager to agree with the biggest title in the room. He defers to Giannotto so much on their CA podcasts. Makes for bad audio.
