Happy Birthday, Pub Def

By Antonio D. French

Filed Monday, October 16, 2006 at 10:03 AM

It all started exactly one year ago with a simple message at 10:03 a.m., "PUB DEF returns".

365 days, 1,082 postings on three blogs, and 230 videos later, we're still here.

You do more news coverage for the City of St. Louis than any other media source.

I congratulate you for not only reporting on the issues but humiliating the big media. PubDef is the unquestionably hardest working source of political information in St. Louis!

Happy Birthday PubDef!

I totally agree with Doug. Pubdef.net is essential for keeping the public informed and public officials on their toes. Congrats on what I hope to be just the first of a large number of happy birthdays.

Only one year for the blog, eh? And how old are the other media outlets that can't keep up with Pub Def?
