Well. It’s official. We’ve expanded.
As much as we needed a local, community paper in Fallon five years ago, the rural parts of the state – everything outside of Washoe and Clark, also need a local, community newspaper. So we started one.
Check it out and let us know what you think. It’s just online for now, but if there’s enough interest and financial support, we’ll print this one too.
The idea is to bring the rural parts of the state together in one big community and make sure our leaders at the state and federal levels of government know who we really are. We don’t think the rural areas are getting a good feel for what goes on at the state level and we don’t think the state folks have a super good idea of what’s going on out in our communities.
We do realize there are other papers doing statewide news – and we have a lot of respect for the work they do and support their efforts. No amount of information getting out into the world is too much.
Our paper is different though because it’s written in the rural communities, by those of us who are out here. We want it to be about us, and we want to use it to strengthen us.
We hope you’ll keep your ear to the ground and let us know when there are important things we need to be covering. We hope you’ll write in with your letters, and we hope you’ll try your hand at a story if you’re so inclined.
So while we work on widening our footprint, we’ll still always be right here, dedicated to Fallon and our first little baby…
…Keeping you Posted.
