One of the best at reporting hospitality news in the traditional news pipeline is Missy Frederick, The Washington Business Journal's reporter for "Restaurants, Retail, Arts & Tourism." We run into each on the food trail as we cover stories about the industry ... me as a trade publication and Missy for the consumer press -- with the obvious business take. You will see in a link below her take on the same James Beard Dinner that I posted on August 10 and formed the basis for our current cover story in Foodservice Monthly that can be found here: Download FSM issue 0812
I've listed here a sample of her current work ... note that it is paid subscription based so I leave that decision to you regarding relevancy etc. I do remind you that like FSM, this is journalism-based news reporting not to be confused with the wild, wild west of blogasphere where the ethics/rules of reporting, paid marketing channels and commentary are still "to be determined." No guessing here ... Missy Frederick reports the news.

If you would like to reach Missy directly via email. I'm sure she would appreciate a scoop.
