Two months later, the Denver Newspaper Agency, which prints the Rocky, added tabloid print weekly zoned inserts in the physical paper (and in the sister Denver Post) carrying excerpts from the blogs. "''YourHub.com represents a significant shift in the way we think about modern newsgathering,''" Temple was quoted as saying, because the Web site would drive the print edition rather than the other way around.
Some weekly newspaper publishers around Denver poo-pooed the idea
This approach was pioneered by VillageSoup, , in Camden, Maine.
In so doing, Temple became one of the earliest U.S. mainstream newspaper editors to embrace so-called "citizen journalism."
On March 31, 2006, John Temple wrote a rejoinder to another article about citizen journalism and traditional journalism. In it, Temple takes to task Samuel Freedman, a journalism professor at Columbia University, for suggesting the two cannot co-exist and benefit from each other. Temple also writes a weekly column,/a> on the news business which often speaks about the paper''s relationship with its readers, and the Internet.
Temple helped the Rocky win a Pulitzer Prize and was named president of the paper in 2001, adding the title of publisher later that year, when he was age 48.
