A weekly blog from Tom Reeser, KOCT’s Executive Director


·         Special thanks to the Editor of OsideNews, Steve Marcotte, for his series on this year's Oceanside parade.  Steve was a guest on KOCT’s Journalist Roundtable during his start-up phase and the paper has been very successful and is widely read.  Steve arrived early on Saturday, July 2nd,  to watch the KOCT crew set-up , record, and air the parade ‘live’ on KOCT’s channel 19. KOCT has covered Oceanside parades since the early 1980’s. Thanks to our two volunteer Hosts Kristi Hawthorne and Jim Schroder for once again providing color commentary.  AND thanks to Main Street Oceanside  for Underwriting the parade coverage for this very popular program.   KOCT appreciates the photos and press provided by the OsideNews.  KOCT is in support and solidarity with another local media resource. A great way to stay in tune with your community is to read the OsideNews.com AND watch KOCT-Your North County Channel.




BREAKING NEWS:   Congratulations to Editor Miguel Blanco and the entire KOCT crew for winning a Hometown Media Award at the annual Alliance for Community Media in Boston this past weekend. This is a national competition and we won the award for the colorful Journalist Roundtable Promo that Miguel produced.  Great job team!!
