Happy Local News Day
Editor Nhatt Nichols and KPTZ board chair Jon Pinnow sit down to discuss the importance of local news on the first ever Local News Day
Hello community,
Today is the first annual Local News Day, a day to celebrate the importance of local journalism. The Beacon is only as strong as its relationships; it's relationship with you, the reader, and our relationships with other entities in our rural community.
So, to celebrate Local News Day, Beacon editor Nhatt Nichols sat down with KPTZ board chairman Jon Pinnow to talk about the importance of local news, and the role accurate information plays in being a good citizen and neighbor.
You can hear that conversation at 11.45 on KPTZ (that's basically now!) or by clicking below.
Thanks for helping us celebrate the first ever Local News Day!
PS, additional thanks to everyone who let us know we sent our style guide out to everyone. It was an accident, but I've really appreciated all of your thoughtful feedback.
