Apparently both Jayne Miller of WBAL TV and Rob Lang of WBAL AM beat Marc Steiner to the punch on the Sheila Dixon resignation story. David Zurawik originally gave Steiner the credit. Baltimore Brew has more (via DCRTV.)

Zurawik also blogged about the “social media” aspect of the breaking story yesterday and goes on to mention reporters tweeting about the resignation. He points out a tidbit from Julie Bykowicz – that courtroom staff kept reporters from leaving the hearing after the judge reminded them of no tweeting or texting from the courtroom.

Zurawik left out any mention of the @insidecharmcity tweets about the breaking story and he also has no mention of Google Wave for discussions of events as they happened. We seem to be the only media outlet in town that has been using Wave in groundbreaking ways for the past couple of months – including yesterday and on the day Dixon was found guilty.
