Arts coverage
At this meeting of the arts folks, Dmitry Sitkovetsky, Greensboro Symphony Orchestra music director, bemoaned the lack of media coverage of the arts. Interestingly, our arts reporter, Dawn Kane, and someone from WFMY were covering the meeting.
For fun, I went to our archives to see what kind of coverage we gave the Symphony. These are rough numbers. In 2007, we mentioned the Symphony and its events 61 times in calendars, entertainment listings and the like. We wrote seven reviews of its performances, and we featured the Symphony, its performers and news about it in 13 bylined stories. Not all that shabby.
I won't review what I've written in the past. It still applies.
