newspapers

To me, the local newspapers like the Dundalk eagle have a better chance of lasing then any big time paper. The local papers give use full information and news to it's readers. I know me personally, I'd rather hear about something that happened in my town then something that happened 5 towns over. More people would rather read about something local and something that they can relate to then something that they have no clue where it is.
The local papers give information about what goes on in that specific town, and about the people in it. To me, the only paper i wanna even look at would be the eagle. The only reason I care is because I wanna see who all got in it for the local sports, and sometimes I may even be in it for high school. Athletes love to read about and see themselves in the paper. It's the only reason they look at it at times.
Honestly, if your in Dundalk, you don't give a shit about what goes on in Milford mill, or Woodlawn, or Hereford, or any of those places. We only care about what's going on in our general town/ area. Local papers have the upper hand because the news they print is going to the people in a small are, and that's all they wanna read about. Big newspaper companies have to large of an area to cover and a lot of times have useless crap in it.
Bigger newspaper companies are also more bias. They try to force their opinion on people sometimes. whether it's politics, sports, or even schools, they want us to think like them. the local newspaper doesn't care as much, but they'll inform you more on what topics would suite you best in the community. All together, the local newspaper are so much more informative and helpful to the people they publish to.

this is the front of one of the papers

and this is the building where it's made.

  1. You're right about the local newspapers being more helpful to the people they sell them to. It's hard to find all of the local stories and information you want to hear in one place. I don't see any use for national newspapers when you can just find them online.
