South of the James was an online journal, founded in 2005 (with work dating back to 2004), that offered news, commentary, and analysis on culture, media & politics in Chesterfield County, Metro Richmond, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the world beyond. Part of the growing wave of “citizen journalism,” it was edited and published by nonprofit executive & writer Conaway B. Haskins III. The blog occasionally featured the work of over a dozen guest contributors. In January 2007, the blog went on permanent hiatus when Conaway took a new job in politics.
