I think we tend to forget that most Minnesotans live in the suburbs of the
twin cities. I think it is safe to assume that most of the Strib's
readers do as well. I think the strib has made an effort to cover
stories that matter, or at least are interesting to more than just
one city. Would you read stories 'bout the Mounds View School board or
the Bloomington park board? I think most Strib readers feel the same
way about Minneapolis. Where do you draw the line? I think the
neighborhood papers do a much better job on very local stuff anyway.
