A while ago I suggested we use this list to track news reported by
neighborhood newspapers.
I got generally positive response, but no volunteers. I’ll get it started and
see if others on the list are interested/willing to post.
The idea is not to note every item, but major news stories and editorial
positions. Maybe newspaper editors/publishers on the list would forward their
own...
I welcome feedback.
(I guess it violates a decorum rule, but I did headlines in CAPS for easier
reference)
