In today's edition of RTDNA Podcasts we chat with Steve Crabtree, the
vice president for of news and station operations at WVLT-TV in
Knoxville, TN.
Crabtree chats with RTDNA about the station's recent coverage of an
arrest involving three University of Tennessee football players.
WVLT-TV got exclusive video of the arrests overnight and through some
smart decision making and fact checking came out on top of the local
market in covering this big local story.

The weekly alternative newspaper “Creative Loafing” (Tampa Bay edition) is
making waves this week by auctioning off editorial content in its Jan.
20 edition to the highest bidder to support The Children’s Home
charity. Items up for bid include the paper’s cover, a story inside the
edition, a 5-start restaurant review (never previously given), a band
review and photo shoot, and a raving review (again with photos) of a
party thrown by the highest bidder.
If nothing else, the paper is generating publicity – a clear
intention if you look past the altruistic gesture to The Children’s
Home.

Is the backyard chicken coop making a comeback? In some cities,
including Denver and Portland, Maine, it's legal to keep chickens at
home. In others, where it's still prohibited, residents are agitating for change.
Urban chicken farming has become more appealing lately, thanks in part to the recession. According to USA Today, Backyard Poultry
magazine has seen subscriptions climb 42% in the past year. "A simple
coop, a pen and a little feed are such a low entry bar that people are flocking to try their hand at keeping chickens in a tough
economy."

No need to search for federal government agencies with a hand in the economy. We've created a list for you.
