Editor and Tenderloin housing advocate Randy Shaw blogs on the occasion of Beyond Chron’s turning seven that there’s good reason the left-leaning online news and opinion site has lightened up a bit from the Chronicle-bashing of its early days.
Add: Shaw says he came to realize “that readers were not that interested in Beyond Chron offering frequent critiques of Chronicle stories.”
The chief reason is that our site began as Chronicle readership began dropping precipitously, particularly among those likely to read Beyond Chron. So our readers had not even heard of the Chronicle pieces we were critiquing.”
