Bricks & Clicks
The Rockford Register Star is more than a newspaper: the ink on print or the “bricks” in the News Tower. We’re a multimedia news and information company: the “clicks” on our Web site and the TV clips on WREX-13. This blog explains our fast-changing media environment and interacts with our readers to show how and why we do what we do.

    180 Degrees? Really?

    The ambitious “yearlong project” (blog) that only lasted from April - September, and was summarily dropped without so much as a final post, won you an award?

    Wow.

    Congratulations on the other awards, but the IPA must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to award that effort.
