dba[edit]

What is the dba in "The MOLLY National Journalism Prize is awarded annually by the Texas Democracy Foundation dba The Texas Observer."? I can't figure it out. Acronym or typo? Tripnoted (talk) 01:00, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The award is in the name of the late Molly Ivins, a nationally known writer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.80.114.84 (talk) 18:23, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

circulation?[edit]

Wow! I sure wouldn't call this a neutral POV. It reads like an advertisement. What's the paid circulation of this thing? That would help determine what influence it has, if any, on the public.

POV, Innadequate sourcing[edit]

Tagged article sourced heavily to publication itself, and POV. Came to check out publication used as sources in another article, this article needs attention.E.M.Gregory (talk) 01:54, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
