PODCAST: ON THE DL
Richard Rys from Philadelphia Magazine joins the DL to talk about some of the highlights of his ten years covering the city.
In Part One of the episode we talk about his tenure at Philly Mag and if he has seen a shift from harder news to softer societal content that speaks to suburban living perhaps more than Philadelphians.
We also talk about the fall of newspapers and if he think the situation will engulf magazines at some point.
Since this month’s issue is the Best of Philly, we spend a lot of time talking about some of the Best and Worst in Philly and discuss the way Best of is put together with respect for and regard to advertising dollars.
We spin that to the back page – Rys’ Exit Interview – to ask what his ‘Best of’ has been for that feature and get some unique insight into how a Q&A like that is put together.
We also announce the list of people you want to know...those who are ducking us.
• This is Part One. The conversation about the Phillies ownership group and more sportsy fun is in Part Two.
