The employees of weeklies were able to spend more of their work-week on reporting and writing, photography, graphics and design, rather than at the tedious and time consuming production of the old "hot lead" process. The result was bigger profits, and that led to the second. "revolution" within the weeklies. . More and more the weeklies are attracting journalism grads and experienced writers, editors and photographers. Not only do the weeklies look better, they read better. While the so-called gossip columns about 'who had Sunday dinner with whom are still important, more space all the time is being filled with local news and feature stories. Reporters and editors are spending more time on community "issues."' At one time not too many years ago, the weeklies were considered the training ground for writers. Today, one can see the beginnings of a reversal j that trend, mainly because many weeklies are now able to offer writers more scope, the chance to do some serious, in-depth reporting.
