Former Baltimore Sun Staffers Launch Web of Memories

A new Web site created by some ex-Baltimore Sun newsies aims to give them a place to remember their former employer and speak out about newspaper job cuts, as well as the changing face of the industry.

"Telling Our Stories," launched this week, offers a mix of reporters recounting their first jobs to others noting some of the most controversial moments on the news beat.

“The resulting works are as diverse as the individuals,” a notice on the site states. “The sponsors did not feel it was their role to act as censors; the fellows were encouraged to express their own feelings in their own way. Although this site gives homage to its newspaper origins by using a familiar journalistic framework, it is essentially a collection of personal memoirs.”
