Who Makes A Newspaper In A Community?
A community mirror depends on readers and informants more than staff. Readers’ errors travel from copy to publication, and reporters rely on accurate local facts. Citizens who share correct details reinforce reliability and strengthen the newspaper’s service to the town.
