In Chambers
The judge will see you now. Step into Springfield Bureau Chief Aaron Chambers’ chambers for an insider’s view on Illinois politics and government. No, Chambers isn’t a real judge. At least not in the sense of wearing a robe, wielding a gavel and issuing orders. But like a good judge, Chambers tells it like it is. |

It looks as though The RRStar’s going to be a cut and paste paper depending on the news services.
If the corporation believes they’ll survive on that, they’re sorely mistaken. People won’t pay to have canned news delivered to their homes that they can easily obtain on the internet. And, an internet version of the RRStar won’t survive once the advertisers realize that no one actually reads or responds to the ads on the pages. They’re so easily tuned out that they hardly seem worth their cost.
So the RRStar will be reduced to a mere shopper’s guide until the advertisers then see that bulk mail will be more a efficient way to get their message out. Then what? A Town Crier?

Just when things are really starting to get exciting around the Statehouse too, (as if they weren’t “exciting” enough already)! I’ll miss reading your take on everything. Best wishes!
