The company I used to work for consulted for RealTalk last year. They were having serious budget problems even then (the publisher tried to pay us with a personal check, and then told us not to cash it until some future date; we sent it back). They scooped up Snookie Stoddard from the ad sales department over at the LA Weekly, so maybe there's hope, but as of this morning I can't get on the website.

If they were looking to shake up LA media and really be an innovative alternative, their ad campaign was woefully lacking in inspiration. Those billboards and bus shelter signs are incredibly lame - "get ready to get real"??
