This will be good for the Indians who don’t want to do tech support for Dell.

Michael Kinsley used to be the Editor of the LA Times while living in Seattle. If he could cover LA from there, why not Pasadena from Bangalore?

Maybe we should consider outsourcing the "Bushs Fault" posts.

Can we say....”Out of touch?” The MSM continues to decline....OR...maybe it says something about GOVERNMENT!

Given that it's the MSM, I say "Right on!"
1. We might get more accurate, honest reporting.
2. Homegrown professional liars go unread, and on the dole.

Good thing is is makes it harder for the local politicians to try to influence the reporters. Bad news is the editor still has the final say.
And living in India, the reporter most likely doesn’t give a #$%!@# about personal property rights or rising taxes in California so whatever the city council says “is good for the community” will probably get pro-coverage.

this is hilarious, as a former reporter, covering meetings in person often SUCKED (boring) but was necessary to truly monitor the government and call them out if corruption surfaced - the townies who hang out after themeeting probably aren’t on the out-sourced reporter’s call list

Can we outsource empty-head air-blown teeeveee "news" reporters too?

"We seek a newspaper journalist based in India to report on the city government and political scene of Pasadena, California, USA."
Makes senswe to me.... Indian reporters can get the facts wrong just as easily and with less cost than American "journalists"

I would expect reporters half a world away to have less bias on local issues than would local folks who would bear the burden or reap the benefits.

James Macpherson, editor and publisher of the two-year-old Web site pasadenanow.com, acknowledged it sounds strange to have journalists in India cover news in this wealthy city just outside Los Angeles.
ROFL
It doesn't sound strange. It sounds S-T-U-P-I-D!
