Promotions, additions and staff changes at Texas newspapers.
In the last six years, interest in local news has declined, for several reasons. Community newspapers can’t do much about most of the causes, but there are some things they can do. It starts with understanding the problem.

I would like to thank everyone who attended last month’s Texas Press Association’s 141st convention held in Denton. We all had a great time, learned a lot of new things about making money for our newspapers, and got to visit with dear old friends while making many new friends.
DENTON – Jim Bardwell received the gavel of Texas Press Association presidential leadership from a long line of predecessors at the 141st TPA Convention and Trade Show in Denton.
The traditional passing of the gavel was followed by the Texas Newspaper Hall of Fame ceremonies featuring a surprise guest speaker. Inducted were Charles Moser, Brenham Banner-Press; the late Morris Roberts, publisher of the Victoria Advocate and Founder of M. Roberts Media; Don Richards, lifelong newspaperman and attorney; and Tommy Thomason, founding director of the Texas Center for Community Journalism.
DENTON – The Texas Press Association honored veteran newspaper publisher and book author H.V. O’Brien with the Frank W. Mayborn Award for Outstanding Community Leadership.
TPS President Jim Bardwell presented the award June 12 at the concluding luncheon of the TPA Convention and Trade Show in Denton.
O’Brien, editor and publisher of Eastland County Today, noted that he and his wife, Gaynell, have been associated with the newspapers in Eastland County since 1962.
