CTP (S3EOctSpecial13) Chasing Meaning Beyond The Byline
[BOOKS / AUTHORS Weeks - Week 3 sub-episode 1 (Mon. 20251027)]
We sit down with longtime sports columnist Patrick Sangimino to talk about his novel Dogs Chase Cars and how a career can eclipse the people who matter. We dig into newspapers’ decline, the rise of paywalls and clicks, and why relationships must come first.
• golden age of newspapers contrasted with today’s thin print and paywalls
• layoffs, consolidation and the shifting business model of local news
• title origin as a metaphor for chasing success without purpose
• relationships strained by ambition and the cost of neglect
• journalism standards versus social engagement metrics
• hashtags, discoverability and the difference between reporting and verification
• adapting to technology without losing craft and values
• editing, titling and practical tips for new authors
• where to find Patrick online and how to follow his work http://PatrickSangimino.com
