The Breakup, Part Two: Who Covers The Media Beat Better?

In the second part of our look at Poynter in the post-Romenesko era and JimRomenesko.com in the post-Poynter era, we chose a random week to read both JimRomenesko.com and Poynter’s MediaWire thoroughly. Though both Romenesko and Mediawire writer Andrew Beaujon (plus the rest of the MediaWire team) covered a lot of the same stories, there were significant differences in how and when.

Monday, June 18:

Mediawire’s first post went up at 7:18 a.m., but in fairness, it was a link to a story posted on CNN the previous Friday.

Romenesko’s first post of the week was up at 10:22 A.M.
