Ban Volin on the twitter feed

Ian said:

Good call on Doug, I just added him.

As for the Supporter info, I'd have to look but I'm building out something that will allow you to check/edit that. So that will be part of the update as well.

They are really good

I don't like reporters PERIOD.

FYI........I always knew there was something incredibly stupid about Volin

Ben Volin to cover Pats, NFL for Boston Globe

Count my in with the crowd who would support the removal of Volin from the list.

Being a part of your twitter feed should be an honor that needs to be earned. IMO, Volin hasn't earned the right of the support of this community. If he breaks a news story, I'm sure someone will post us the one-time link. In the meantime, I don't think he deserves our collective attention.

We have a Twitter feed ....

I don't use MyTwit anyways ...too many twats on twitter.

Volin is easily a top 3 cooz in the local media ... he is useless.

Add my vote for the ability to turn the twitter feed off completely. If I wanted to see what any of these twits were twitting, I'd use... I don't know... maybe... Twitter.

Potential competition especially for those hacks at the Herald.

I would like to say that I acknowledge Ian's and Miguel's comments about Volin and they do make me think better of him.

I've seen/noticed others not crediting Miquel while using his hard work and I've even seen others try to minimize the work he does though I think he's rightfully pretty universally respected.

How someone treats the little guys (sorry Ian, Miguel) is very much indicative of the kind of man you are. For doing so, Volin deserves a little recognition.

But if other's cant abide seeing his Tweets, he has only himself to blame.

Ian made a great list. But how did he forget Erika Leigh?

Not really any "hacks" at the Herald anymore. I think both Jeff Howe and Karen Guregian are pretty solid. They've turned the beat around there pretty well. The Globe right now is a mess. There's no one left who is a "must read" right now... it's odd since 2-3 years ago that wasn't the case.
