The Advocate staff is working to bring you more multimedia features such as podcasts — here’s one with Rudy Bush, a city hall reporter for the Dallas Morning News, who came to talk city budget cuts and taxes. And listen to our editors and photographers discuss last month’s cover story about neighborhood celebrities. We also have video — if you missed the recent Kids Safety Fair at the Northeast Police Substation, we have all the drug-sniffing dogs, cool rides and cute kiddos here.
We here at Advocate have officially jumped aboard the social network bandwagon. You can now follow us on Twitter, or join us on Facebook. We promise not to bombard you with tweets or status updates about how much we hate Mondays — instead, we’ll just use both formats to keep on bringing you the latest and greatest neighborhood happenings.
