CRAWFORD - The Lone Star Iconoclast, by popular demand, has begun filing frequent updates on its website, www.iconoclast-texas.com, regarding the vigil taking place near Crawford. The banner leading to the updates is called "Cindy Watch."

Cindy Sheehan on Saturday made a journey to Crawford to discuss face-to-face with President George W. Bush the death of her son in Iraq last year.

The Iconoclast was there when marchers made a trek toward the Bush ranch and the newspaper reported on its website a play-by-play of what happened.
Normally, The Iconoclast updates its website weekly, to correspond with the weekly publication of its print edition.

"We felt that in this case it was warranted to provide more frequent updates," said publisher W. Leon Smith.

He noted that associate editor Nathan Diebenow was in the field on Saturday, but that Sunday was mainly spent preparing the print edition for publication to meet established deadlines and making adjustments on the website to better accomodate the update section.

"Please remember that we have a very small staff," said Smith, "but we are willing to do what we can to get the news of Ms. Sheehan?s quest published online as early and as frequently as we can, as news happens."
