Not enough John Dillon in your life? We know how you feel!
Never fear. If you’re a Rutland Herald or Barre-Montpelier Times Argus subscriber, you can now read the Vermont Public Radio reporter’s crisp copy in your morning paper as you eat your Cheerios and listen to him on “Morning Edition.”
That’s because the two Mitchell family-owned newspapers have struck up a new content-sharing arrangement with Vermont’s statewide public radio station.

“It’s part of VPR’s strategic goals to consider partnerships that would benefit the people of Vermont,” says VPR senior vice president John Van Hoesen. “We look for partnerships that help to inform the audience to the highest degree that we can.”
Here’s how it’ll work: The Herald and the T-A will run print versions of stories filed by VPR’s three Statehouse reporters: Dillon, Bob Kinzel and Kirk Carapezza. In return, Herald and T-A reporter Peter Hirschfeld will contribute radio versions of his stories to VPR and appear on air, according to Rob Mitchell, state editor and heir apparent to the two newspapers.
