Why Local News Matters
Local news is the glue that holds a community together. It informs, connects, and empowers residents to participate in civic life. Without local news, we're less aware of the issues facing our community, less connected to our neighbors, and less able to hold our leaders accountable. Local news is also essential for preserving our local identity and culture. It tells the stories of the people and places that make our community unique, celebrating our history and traditions. In an age of global news and social media, it's more important than ever to support local news organizations that are committed to serving their communities.
