Citizens Breaking News

It happened again. Maybe it's not a fluke? Three different posters tonight broke a robbery at a local tobacco store. About an hour and a half later the Anderson Herald Bulletin had a complete story, but it broke at AFP. Be different some of the members of the site told me last Friday when we met in person.

What's so great about this, imho, is that it wasn't my idea. A member started it. And it grew from there.

I was told today that it's not broke so don't go trying to fix it. Small smile. They get protective of their site... our site.

I thought if anyone wanted to read the story, although the AFP broke it first at 9:02, the HB actually got it online at 10:42, (great job to AFP, sorry I was at a youth group function) here is the link: http://www.theheraldbulletin.com/local/local_story_203224230.html Merlin: We might not get all, but since more people are posting that listen to the scanner, we will surely be able to get more.
