Tweets that may be applicable to SFLTV.com…

In our recent exclusive post about WTVJ banning SFLTV.com from their newsroom, I wrote the following:

“Our writers, content producers, and administration are, in fact by definition, journalists.”

SFLTV.com stumbled upon this Tweet by a WTVJ morning producer named Tammy Delgado. You can follow her Twitter account here.

First (and let me make this very clear), we’re not saying this Tweet is about us. It would be rather cocky of me to think that Ms. Delgado even reads our site on a daily basis. But her disapproval for us is clear. Because our comments are un-moderated, and the sole opinion of the commenter AND NOT SFLTV.com, some unpleasant things have been said. The level of disapproval from her of our site is clear. In fact, she’s even blocked us from following her on Twitter: Continue reading ‘Tweets that may be applicable to SFLTV.com…’

SFLTV.com Welcomes James

Please join me in welcoming the newest member to the SFLTV.com team, content writer James. James has been a loyal reader of the blog, and has great inside connections to the industry. Join me in giving him a warm welcome, and making his experience here as enjoyable as possible.

Welcome James!!

A note from the SFLTV.com staff…

Hi there.

Since we seem to be getting a few daily Meebo messages about this topic, I figured I should clear this little rumor up.

We haven’t been sued. In fact, we haven’t even been contacted by an attorney. We most certainly have not settled a lawsuit… and more importantly, no (and this is unfortunate for some), are not shutting down.

We hope this clears things up for some who seem to think that the above is a reality.

PS: We invite everyone to re-read our disclaimer here.

Beta: SFLTV Wants YOU!

As many of you may have realized within the past few months, SFLTV is expanding. With a new record readership and hit count, SFLTV is bigger and better than ever before. We are focusing and actively working on new ways to provide fresh content, gossip, and exclusive insider information that only SFLTV can offer you; all of course, 100% free of charge. Over the past months, SFLTV has printed and broken more South Florida TV industry news than anyone else. This also includes all local newspapers and other blogs. SFLTV.com is currently number one in the area, and it is with that I am now thrilled to extend the offer to you to join and expand the ‘SFLTV Family.’ Because SFLTV.com is a ‘hobby’ for at least one of our bloggers, and compensation on most blogs isn’t sizable, fresh content can easily suffer. The SFLTV team recently brainstormed about how we can keep up with daily content, expand our readership, allow SFLTV to remain absolutely free of charge, and expand further to serve you to the fullest. With this, we have decided to expand even further by adding yet another content provider for SFLTV. We feel that with three bloggers on the site, we would have the edge in keeping up with daily content and expanding the type of stories we cover. SFLTV.com is now actively searching to expand the team in adding a content provider, which could very well be you.

Qualifications and Other Information: The current SFLTV.com team is a very friendly, easy to work with, and adaptable team. We’re people who are willing to teach, yet at the same time, are constantly learning. We’re looking for someone who has a general interest, passion, or inside connection to the South Florida local news media. We are also looking for any former news station employees. The great thing about blogging with SFLTV is there’s no minimum or maximum for posting. This will solely be a hobby for our new content writer, and therefore, no compensation will be paid. This is strictly for someone looking for something interesting and fun to do in their spare time. Therefore, you post on your own time, and can post as little or as much as you want. Of course, we’re looking for someone that wants to blog and will contribute. After all, there’s no sense in being on the team if you don’t want to blog. We’re even fine with the less technical savvy folks. Again, we’re willing to teach; and it’s easier than it looks.

Please see the FAQ’s after the jump, and look for details on the less than 5 minute application process. We all are looking forward to being able to serve our readers better, and the new and improved near future that is for SFLTV.com. Look for it soon, and we’ll keep you updated on the new contributor status.

A Year Here

Almost a year ago, I joined the SFLTV.com staff (meaning, joined one other person) on this blog as a hobby. 167 (and counting) posts later, I’m still loving this hobby known as blogging. It’s just that, a hobby. Many of you may or may not know that I blog free of charge, as a hobby and something interesting to do in my free time.

I cannot explain how much I’ve learned over the past year. “Admin” as you all know him, has taught me a ridiculous amount about blogging in general, and the technical aspects that come along with it… and for some of our slower readers, YES there are two bloggers on this site. I swear, I don’t understand 98% of what he says… what with the “MYSQL’s” and the “PHP’s.” I just agree and say “ahh, interesting.” Whatever. I just write.

I’ve learned that you can’t just publicly call a reporter a diva, and ranting isn’t always the best route to go. The things you learn.

Anywho, I think I’ll stay a tad longer. I feel like I’d miss the mean comments too much.
