Papers in Rita's Path to Inform Via Web
An AP newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
Gulf Coast newspapers in the projected path of Hurricane Rita scrambled Thursday to finalize plans to keep employees safe and readers informed, mainly through Web sites.
The Galveston County Daily News evacuated its barrier island offices in Galveston and Texas City but hoped to continue printing after landfall, Publisher Dolph Tillotson said in a recording left at the offices.
"For the duration of the storm we plan to continue publishing a paper each day," he said. "However, it will be small. Our ability to deliver it is very limited."
Tillotson, like other publishers in Rita's path, said readers should go to the newspaper's Web site for the latest news.
"After the storm, we will deliver bundles of papers from throughout the storm period," he said.
