"Sunday Square Off," with Donna Gratehouse and Greg Patterson

Brahm Resnik’s Sunday Square Off this morning featured our own Donna Gratehouse, the Democratic Diva, along with intermittently nutty right-winger Greg Patterson, who blogs under the name Espresso Pundit; and political consultant Stan Barnes, looking at Tuesday’s state primary.

What AZCentral is good at

… putting a walking talking annoyance trying to sell us Hondas in the face of anyone who visits their web site:

Getting the search engine to work so one can find a piece of 12 News video?

Not so much.

Note how AZCentral even allows the crappy company it’s using for the animated ads to advertise itself, complete with trademark symbol.

It’s an ad on an ad!

Of course the site needs to sell ads; no one thinks journalism should be free.

But AZCentral.com is a site that’s user-unfriendly even by the clotted standards of most daily newspapers.

I was looking for video from today’s 12 News' Sunday Square Off; two or three passes and it wasn’t coming up.

Here’s what you get the first time using Google News:
