DCRTV Dave HughesIf you ever seriously followed the goings on of DMV radio and TV media, you probably came across DCRTV.com at some point. In the early WWW days, his site was a must read, especially the Mailbag where media locals of all stripes bantered (rarely the stars, though). Dave got great scoops; he had a small army of ears on the ground. As social media rose, his site became less populated. Updates were fewer, the Mailbag sparser. Great work while it lasted. RIP Dave.
