Our View: Moving Forward

We stand by everything we’ve written.

We will continue to report the news in a transparent, fair and complete manner. 

We will hold those in power accountable by clearly communicating their decisions and actions to the people who put them in office. We will publish the information that residents need to to understand those actions and to make their own decisions at town meeting and the ballot box.

We will express our opinions on the editorial page and encourage our readers to do the same through letters to the editor. Every viewpoint is welcome.

We will push back on any attempt to restrain the freedom of the press, as guaranteed by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

We will focus on serving our communities as comprehensively as possible and promoting civil discussions about the issues that are most important to residents. We will listen to feedback from our readers to make our coverage the best it can be.

We will be positive and look forward, not back.
